Stonehenge + Magna Carta Tours

Private Stonehenge tour from London…plus Salisbury Cathedral.

Two tours: Stonehenge x 7-hours | Stonehenge + Magna Carta x 10-hours.

I’m a London born and bred tour guide but I love my English scenery and history too. I enjoy providing commentary and historic anecdotes about all my tour destinations. On this day trip out of London we’re going to visit one or two unforgettable English landmarks: Stonehenge alone or Stonehenge + Magna Carta (Salisbury Cathedral).

Stonehenge: is a prehistoric wonder 5000 years old. Yet there are so many layers of history here and new discoveries still being made. I first visited when I was eleven. I’m still fascinated, and I’m still learning. I’ll help you separate the myths from the real stories. By the time we leave, you’ll know your neolithic from your megalithic and a disc barrow from a druid priest!

The entire ‘ritual’ site is vast, predating even the famous stone circle. The stones are definitely the centrepiece, but there is also a superb Visitor Centre exhibiting discoveries and treasures from this mysterious monument.

Salisbury Cathedral and Magna Carta: 13th century Gothic triumph, medieval religious powerhouse and place of burial for the big bishops.

This spectacular Cathedral has the tallest spire in Britain, beautiful stone decoration, olden tombs and is home to one of only four surviving copies of Magna Carta (1215). We’ll explore its tales of religion, upheaval and, yes, violence.

I’m your driver and private guide at Stonehenge and Salisbury Cathedral. I’ll be explaining as we explore.

Stonehenge and Salisbury both have excellent parking facilities. Walking is integral to both attractions and both are wheelchair friendly. I’ll talk as we walk and when we stop to view all the points of interest. There are endless opportunities for photographs.

Stonehenge is very isolated. Having a driver/walking guide like me conducting your tour in a London taxi is super-efficient and will help to make the day enjoyable and memorable. Combining the two landmarks in one trip makes for an excellent full day excursion.

Modern bathroom facilities are at both locations. We’ll also be stopping for short breaks on the outward and return journeys.
