Embark on a full-day private tour of Stonehenge and Windsor from London, with your very own expert archaeologist guide. Travel in comfort with professional chauffeur in our Mercedes V-Class, offering door-to-door service.

Begin your journey with a visit to Stonehenge and its surrounding landscapes, one of the world’s most iconic Neolithic sites. Learn about its history and significance in a way like no other from your archaeologist guide as you explore the ancient stones.

You will also explore historic Windsor, best known for Windsor Castle, one of the official residences of the British monarch and the world's largest inhabited castle. The castle is almost 1000 years old, providing the setting and burial place for England's most important historical events and Kings and Queens – including William the Conqueror (1066), Henry VIII, Charles I, and Elizabeth II. The pretty town sits along the River Thames and blends its royal heritage with charming shops, parks, and riverside walks.

Throughout the day, enjoy countryside walks to explore the sites in detail. Your guide will provide fascinating insights into the Neolithic, Bronze Age, and Iron Age monuments you visit.

We will then head back to London, returning you to your hotel or other accommodation. Alternatively, we can provide drop off at alternative locations such as Heathrow or other. The day will be tailored to your needs.

Some reviews of the day:

“Our first trip to England would not have been complete without a trip to Stonehenge. My husband and I took the tour with our teenage son and my parents. The trip is a highlight of my life. It is positively one of the most amazing experiences we’ve ever had. Tom was terrific. He has so much knowledge."

"With an older sister in school for archaeology, I have been on too many history tours to count. This one stands out as the best! I knew nothing about Stonehenge or the history of the land but left with an amazing appreciation for the people and sites here. Our guide was amazing, really making every piece of history incredibly interesting. Also the physical demonstrations he did to show how the architecture was designed to use the sun's light was fascinating. A must-see!"

"This tour was absolutely perfect and well worth the money. It was so nice to be able to have an archaeologist to give more information and answer more questions than you’d get from any other tour guide. The inclusion of some of the lesser-known sites was awesome! I learned so much, and I would do this again in a heartbeat!"
