Stonehenge and Bath Day Tour from Birmingham

This full-day group tour departs from Birmingham and visits Stonehenge and Bath, ideal for history and culture enthusiasts.

Description

Travel by air-conditioned coach from Birmingham to two key historical sites in Southern England. Your first stop is Stonehenge on Salisbury Plain, where you can explore the prehistoric monument at your own pace. Use the included audio guide and shuttle service to access the UNESCO-listed stones dating back 4,500 years.

Next, visit the city of Bath. See architectural landmarks like Pulteney Bridge, built around 250 years ago, and walk along the river embankment. Visit Bath Abbey, an Anglican parish church with origins in the 7th century and extensive rebuilding in the 12th and 16th centuries.

Explore Green Street’s independent shops and stalls, then visit the Jane Austen Centre housed in a Georgian townhouse featuring a permanent exhibition on the author’s time in Bath. Nearby is The Raven pub, offering traditional British dishes.

Take a walking tour of the Royal Crescent and the Circus, two prominent Georgian architectural sites built over 250 years ago. The Circus was designed by John Wood the Elder and is notably shaped in a circle similar in size to Stonehenge. Finish your visit with time at the Roman Baths, which date back nearly 2,000 years.
