What to expect
Your guide collects you from your Bath accommodation and drives to Avebury first, where you'll spend time on foot amongst the ancient stones. Unlike Stonehenge's cordoned-off approach, Avebury lets you walk right amongst the megaliths dotting the fields and village. After exploring at leisure, you'll drive to Stonehenge. Here you have freedom to wander the site independently—no guided commentary, just you and the monument across its open Wiltshire setting. The day involves several hours of driving between locations and outdoor walking in exposed countryside.

Stonehenge admission isn't included—purchase on arrival or book ahead online. Bring lunch or plan a stop en route, as meals aren't provided. Dress for changeable weather and wear comfortable walking shoes. The itinerary includes significant travel time between sites. Children must be aged 12 or older.
