Location: Salisbury, U.K.
See Stonehenge and visit Salisbury Cathedral.
Trip details
Superbly situated in southern England's rural heartland, few destinations can match the amazing diversity of Stonehenge and Salisbury. The visit will also include the mysterious prehistoric monument of Stonehenge.
We shall then go to the magnificent medieval city of Salisbury, with its historic streets and alleyways, charming half-timbered buildings, traditional English eating houses and characterful shopping streets, and UK's finest medieval cathedral.
A leisurely tour of the Cathedral, Chapter House and Magna Carta takes over an hour, although tours can be adjusted to meet your schedule. You may wish to extend your stay with time for refreshments in the spectacular glass roofed restaurant, or by adding a tower tour. We suggest you allow about 2 hours for a relaxed visit to include the walk to/from the coach drop off point, a tour and refreshment break. Salisbury Cathedral boasts the tallest spire in Britain and Europe's oldest working clock . A great day out not to be missed.
Please bring appropriate footwear and clothes for wet weather as Stonehenge will be outdoors.
