Windsor, Bath and Stonehenge

Your journey though history will include: Windsor Castle, Windsor Castle, the largest and oldest occupied castle in the world, is the home of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

We will visit the magnificent State Apartments, furnished with some of the finest works of art and still used for State occasions; St George's Chapel, where the tombs of many kings and queens lay, notably Henry VIII and his third wife Jane Seymour. And then on to the Queen Mary's Doll House, the most famous doll house in the world.

Continuing on to the mysterious Stonehenge, where 5,000 years ago 40-ton rocks were dragged to the lonely windy plain of Salisbury Hill. Their secrets continue to tantalize and intrigue scholars and visitors to this day.

Some say that Stonehenge was a religious temple; others say that it was an astronomical clock, or a Bronze Age burial ground. Learn more about this iconic monument steeped in mystery and legend, and let your imagination be captivated by its silent, ancient mysteries.

Our next stop is Bath standing on the slopes of the River Avon. This beautiful Georgian city was the first city in England to be designated a World Heritage Site.

On our panoramic tour you will see Bath Abbey, where the first British king was crowned in 973AD, the famous Pulteney Bridge modeled on the Florentine Ponte Vecchio and the stunning architecture of the Royal Crescent.

The Roman Baths, the best preserved Roman Spa from the ancient world are what made the city famous, yet remained hidden from view until the 1870's. Here we will also witness the torch lighting ceremony as the torches around the Great Roman Bath are lit at dusk (not applicable in the summer) and exclusively for clients on our tours,there is an opportunity to drink a glass of spa water straight from the historic Pump Rooms.
