Stonehenge, Avebury, Cotswolds Small-Group Day Trip from Bath
Once you’ve boarded your vehicle at your meeting point in Bath, you’ll head straight to the UNESCO-listed wonder of Stonehenge. You’ll arrive early to beat the crowds, learn about the enigmatic landmark from a guide, and spend some free time exploring the visitor center, café, and gift shop. Next, you’ll head to Avebury, where you’ll have time to explore the charming 17th-century village and visit Avebury Stone Circle, another mysterious site. Then, you’ll make short photo stops at the almost 5,000-year-old Silbury Hill and the Cherhill White Horse and Monument, before arriving at the National Trust- Lacock Abbey and Village, where you’ll enjoy a traditional British lunch. Your final stop is Castle Combe, a charming Cotswolds village that’s often hailed as England’s prettiest village. You’ll have time to soak up the medieval atmosphere and wander cobblestone streets before returning to your original meeting point in Bath.
