Explore beyond London on a full-day journey to some of England’s most iconic sights. Discover the secrets of Stonehenge, enjoy free time in the elegant city of Bath, soak up the charm of the Cotswolds countryside, and visit the birthplace of William Shakespeare in Stratford-upon-Avon.
Begin at Stonehenge, the world-famous prehistoric monument. Marvel at the enormous 40-ton sarsen stones and the smaller bluestones, transported over 280 miles from the Preseli Mountains in Wales, and learn about the mysteries, rituals, and astronomical alignments that have fascinated visitors for thousands of years.
Next, visit the beautiful Georgian city of Bath. Stroll its charming streets, shop in boutique stores, or relax at a café. Admire landmark architecture such as the Royal Crescent, the Circus, and Bath Abbey as you explore this UNESCO World Heritage city at your own pace.
Travel through the picturesque Cotswolds, England’s quintessential countryside. Admire rolling hills, honey-colored cottages, quaint stone villages, and bustling market towns. Enjoy plenty of photo opportunities as you soak up the timeless rural beauty.
Finish the day in Stratford-upon-Avon, Shakespeare’s birthplace. Stop outside his childhood home and see the famous timber-framed houses and the Royal Shakespeare Company theatre. Stroll along the River Avon and past the Holy Trinity Church, where Shakespeare is buried.
Experience a private visit to Shakespeare’s Schoolroom and Guildhall, where the young playwright studied. Step into a Tudor classroom, admire the medieval wall paintings, and try writing with a quill and ink—just like students did in Shakespeare’s time.
