Overview

Visit some of England’s most beautiful towns and countryside on this 12-hour tour of Stonehenge, Bath, the Cotswolds and Stratford-upon-Avon. Travel out of London by luxury coach to the prehistoric site of Stonehenge, and onward for a panoramic tour of Bath — both UNESCO World Heritage sites. Continue on with your guide through the Cotswolds countryside to the historic town of Stratford-upon-Avon. Enjoy a visit to Shakespeare's Schoolroom. Combine vibrant history, gorgeous scenery and sightseeing at some of Britain's most popular attractions.

Depart from near Victoria Coach Station in central London and leave the hustle and bustle behind you as you travel out into the English countryside by luxury coach. Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride as London’s urban scenery gives way to the open greenery of the countryside.

First, head through the rolling Wiltshire plains to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Stonehenge, widely considered one of the most famous prehistoric monuments in the world. The enormous stones are believed to have been brought from the Preseli Mountains in Wales — a distance of over 280 miles (450 kilometers) — sometime between 3,000 BC and 2,000 BC, though to this day nobody is sure of the exact reasons for their arrangement and placement. Marvel at the huge stone circle, discover the many mysteries surrounding it and decide for yourself why Stonehenge was built.

Continue onward to the fine city of Bath, birthplace of authoress Jane Austin. Explore the beautiful UNESCO World Heritage-listed city — considered by many to be one of the prettiest cities in England — with your guide, and enjoy capturing its attractive Georgian architecture, crescents and terraces on camera. After your tour, enjoy a little free time to wander the cobbled streets and peruse the shops at your leisure.

Head north from Bath through the heart of the Cotswolds, widely thought of as one of the most beautiful stretches of countryside in England. Take in breathtaking views of open fields criss-crossed by dry stone walls as you travel, and bustling market towns with magnificent churches. Enjoy the spectacular scenery from the comfort of your coach.

Arrive in the charming town of Stratford-upon-Avon, birthplace of William Shakespeare and home to the world-renowned Royal Shakespeare Company. Stratford is a charming market town set in the heart of rural England, with a delightful river winding its way slowly through the town. Enjoy a glass of Sparkling wine and scones in Shakespeare's Schoolroom, stretch your legs and explore Stratford to soak up the town’s wonderfully welcoming atmosphere.

At the end of your time in Stratford-Upon-Avon, hop back in your coach for the return journey to London, where your tour will conclude.

Our guide Steve was an amazing wealth of knowledge! He was a fun guide as well and we would happily take any tour he was a part of. This trip was definitely worth it!

From the start of the tour to the end, Nick our guide and Florian the Coach Driver were top shelf !! The tour is a long day, but the sites, sounds, food and drink + GREAT stories along the way --made for incredible day !! Nick even offered PERFECT advice for finding a Shakespeare book in Stratford On-Avon , when it seemed all stores had closed for the day. Florian was a very safe driver in traffic, rain and tiny streets!! Nicks recommendations for some quick bites and fast access to Stonehenge ahead of the other coaches arriving was great !!

Steve was a great guide. Witty and very informed. Only reason I gave a 4 and not a 5 is because I would have like to stop and see some cottages for photos in the cotswolds. Otherwise, loved every minute.
