Description

Explore Stonehenge, Avebury and The Cotswolds on a small group tour from Bath. Discover ancient stone circles, charming villages and picturesque landscapes.
Leave Bath in the morning and journey through the rolling Wiltshire countryside to the world-famous Stonehenge. Have time to explore this prehistoric masterpiece; walk the perimeter of the great stone circle, visit the award-winning exhibition, and uncover the myths, legends, and archaeology of Britain’s most iconic ancient site.

From one stone circle to another, travel on to Avebury, a remarkable site where an entire village sits within the world’s largest stone circle. Wander freely among the standing stones, touch them, and appreciate their extraordinary scale. Remain in Avebury with time to have some lunch.

In the afternoon, continue to Lacock, a picture-perfect National Trust village where cobbled streets, medieval cottages, and traditional inns have made it a favorite filming location — from Harry Potter to Downton Abbey. Take time to stroll, take photos of filming locations, and enjoy a refreshment in a local tearoom.

Finally, stop at the idyllic Cotswold village of Castle Combe, often called the 'prettiest village in England.' Its market cross, babbling brook, and honey-colored cottages create a scene straight from a storybook. After soaking up the idyllic Cotswolds atmosphere, return to Bath by the early evening.
