About this tour
An 11-hour guided tour from London exploring Britain's most significant Neolithic sites with a specialist archaeologist. Start at Durrington Walls and Woodhenge to understand Stonehenge's builders, then visit the stone circle itself. Continue to Silbury Hill—Europe's largest prehistoric mound—and the 5,500-year-old West Kennet long barrow before finishing at Avebury's vast stone circle and its adjoining village. A dedicated driver allows your guide to focus entirely on interpretation rather than navigation.

What to expect
Your archaeologist will contextualise each site rather than simply list facts. You'll walk across fields and uneven ground—expect muddy boots and a moderate pace—to see how these monuments relate to one another across the Wiltshire landscape. The day flows geographically: north to Durrington and Woodhenge, then south via Silbury Hill and West Kennet, finishing at Avebury. Weather varies; the tour runs regardless, so waterproofs are essential. The driver handles all logistics, leaving your guide free to answer questions and explore details as your group's interests dictate.
