Stonehenge is combined with a tour to the picturesque towns, villages and countryside of England's Cotswolds. Full of natural beauty and charm, the Cotswolds remain largely unspoilt and offer a glimpse into what rural life was like in the past. Our first stop though is the ancient Neolithic circle at Stonehenge on Wiltshire's Salisbury Plain.
Stonehenge began as a burial area over 4500 years ago and has changed many times during this period, with stones being added and the site being reformed several times. Part of the changes made to the site were the addition of the bluestones. These stones which were mined in Wales and were dragged to Stonehenge using the limited technologies of the era. This would have taken a large number of people and tremendous organisation.
On site is the fabulous Stonehenge Visitor Centre where you can further explore the mysteries of the ancient stones. Here you'll enjoy world-class exhibitions and multi-media displays. Outside there are reconstructed Neolithic houses—where if you're lucky—you might see ancient crafting demonstrations and bread-making using prehistoric techniques.
Now it's lunch on the go as we drive you through beautiful countryside to the picturesque Cotswolds with its unspoilt villages of limestone cottages, small rivers and streams. Bourton-on-the-Water is a traditional Cotswold village situated either side of the tranquil River Windrush; noted for its low bridges, stone cottages and a 1930s replica model village.
Burford—also on the Windrush—is known as the 'gateway' to the Cotswolds and dates back to the Saxon period. The ancient church of St John the Baptist and the fifteenth century houses in the town square are a popular toiurist attraction as is the Baroque style Methodist church.
Founded by Norman lords, Stow-on-the-Wold is situated on the old Roman road—the Fosse Way. The large historic Market Square lays testament to the town's commercial past. The medieaval St Edward's Church is a popular visit with its ancient yew trees at the north porch.
We'll also show you The Slaughters. Upper Slaughter and Lower Slaughter (with its gorgeous nineteenth century Old Mill) are both situated on the River Eye and are typical of picturesque Cotswold villages. Interesting architecture to seen here too.
Due to time constraints we suggest eating lunch in the vehicle whilst on the move. If you would rather have a pub or restaurant lunch we would need to extend the tour by 2 hours at an extra cost of £100.
Our experienced tour guides will help you make the most of your tour to Stonehenge and the Cotswolds. Travel in chauffeur-driven comfort through the beautiful countryside of Wiltshire and the Cotswolds. We can pick you up from your hotel, the airport or port.

Our customers say...
"We thoroughly enjoyed our wonderful tour of the English countryside. We found David on the internet and he custom designed a budget-friendly tour that perfectly met the needs of our family. David promptly picked us up and vehicle was clean and comfortable. Along the drive to Stonehenge, he provided us with historical and trivial information about the areas we were travelling through. David is extremely knowledgeable, he was very patient with our questions, and great with the kids too. The tour was the highlight of our trip to London"
