Stonehenge
The most famous prehistoric monument in the world, and now a world heritage site, Stonehenge stands alone in the vast empty tract of Salisbury plain. Its origins date back nearly 5,000 years, and it has been home to pagan religion and spiritual worship, not to be mention public debate ever since. What was this vast collection of stones intended for? Was it observatory of the moon, a temple to the sun, or an elaborate cemetery? Who were the people who carried and carved these 40-ton rocks? Come and unlock the secrets for yourself and marvel at this remarkable and mysterious feat of ancient engineering and design.

Bath
Next, we head to Bath and arrive in time for lunch. With fabulous restaurants, tea houses, sandwich, and coffee shops, not to mention all the classic British pubs, you will be spoilt for choice of places to eat.

Bath is a beautiful Georgian city with delightful crescents, terraces, and architecture. Following our scenic drive into the heart of the city, there will be plenty of time to explore at your leisure.

Entrance to the Roman Baths
Your ticket includes entrance to the Roman Baths that were built nearly 2,000 years ago.

At the heart of the World Heritage Site, you can walk around the steaming pool on the Roman stone paving and admire the ancient Roman statues and architecture.
