Discover Glastonbury and Wells on a private day trip from Bristol, Bath, or Swindon. Visit Glastonbury Tor, explore the ruins of Glastonbury Abbey, and admire the stunning Wells Cathedral.
Begin your private tour with a pickup from your accommodation in Bristol, Bath, or Swindon. Drive for around one hour to the ancient town of Glastonbury. Upon arrival, climb the legendary Glastonbury Tor, a hill steeped in legend, including being the place where Joseph of Arimathea buried the Holy Grail and the place of King Arthur’s healing. Climb the Tor to St Michael’s tower, which stands on the summit, and take time to enjoy the panoramic view of the Somerset Levels.

After descending the Tor, walk to the beautiful Chalice Well. For an entrance fee, enjoy the beautiful gardens that surround the famous red spring, so-called due to its iron-rich red colour. After this, visit the centrepiece of Glastonbury: the ruined Glastonbury Abbey. For a fee, explore the legendary medieval Abbey and its tranquil gardens, which house the grave of King Arthur. Once you have finished exploring the Abbey, have time to explore the town center, with its many unusual independent shops and cafes, which cater heavily for vegan diets.

When you have finished exploring Glastonbury town centre, begin the twenty-minute drive to nearby Wells. Wells is an exquisite medieval city, the smallest city in England.

After exploring the Cathedral, there are many more attractions to see, such as walking down Vicar’s Close, the oldest inhabited medieval street in Europe, and exploring the Bishop’s Palace and gardens. This amazing building has housed the Bishops of Bath & Wells for over 800 years and can be explored for a fee, including watching the famous swans, which live in the moat, ring a bell for food.
