Excursion Magical stonehenge (tour and heathrow airport transfer) tour at Southampton

Experience Stonehenge, one of England's most historic site on this excursion for guests disembarking and flying after 5pm from Heathrow airport.

English Countryside

Depart and travel from the port around the head of Southampton, passing through the suburbs with their variety of houses and neat gardens, heading towards the open countryside. The fresh green and blossoms of the English countryside heighten the hedgerows and stretches of rural landscapes as we enjoy the pastoral and agricultural views. Next continue on to Stonehenge.

Stonehenge

One piece of magic that never fails to cast a spell over visitors is the awe-inspiring sight of Stonehenge. This mighty symbol of pre-history is a wonder of the world drawing thousands of visitors each year to witness its awesome majesty. Simplicity, solitude and a powerful air of mystery surround this enigmatic and ancient circle of stones set in isolation.

From the bus park, walk to the fantastic new visitors centre to learn more about this wondrous sight then take the short ride on the land train down to these mystical stones. Your guide will accompany you along the pathway encircling the fenced-off stones for close-up views. Listen as they describe what has been concluded from observations and archaeological evidence about the builders, their beliefs, tools, and methods. Alternatively, if you prefer, walk around the area on your own and take advantage of the fine photographic opportunities of the entire stone circle.

At the appointed time, re-group for the transfer to Heathrow Airport.
