That’s why we’ve designed this special excursion to give you the rare opportunity to step inside the iconic stone circle, either before or after opening hours. But the adventure doesn’t stop there. Then stroll through the well-preserved medieval 13th centur village of Lacock, explore the elegant city of Bath on a guided walking tour, and marvel at the impressive Roman Baths, all with an expert guide.

Your exclusive adventure begins at London’s Millennium Gloucester Hotel, where you’ll depart either in the morning or late afternoon, depending on your selected tour time. From there, you'll relax in comfort on an air-conditioned coach as you set off to explore some of England's most iconic landmarks. With a group size limited to just 25 people and no other groups at that time, you’ll have the opportunity to visit Stonehenge's Inner Circle, enjoy a scenic walk through the picturesque village of Lacock, and take a guided tour of the elegant city of Bath.
For the morning tour, your journey starts with a visit to Stonehenge before it opens to the public, while the afternoon tour lets you explore the site after it closes. In both cases, you'll have the rare opportunity to enter the stone circle, a privilege few ever experience. You’ll also visit Lacock’s historic George Inn, where you can enjoy a meal or drink at your own cost, before heading to Bath to marvel at its Georgian architecture and explore the famous Roman Baths. The tour concludes with your return to Victoria Train Station in London, bringing an unforgettable day of history, culture, and breathtaking scenery to a close.

Meet in Central London
Your adventure kicks off at London’s Millennium Gloucester Hotel, where you’ll meet your guide and fellow travelers early in the morning or before lunch time, depending on your selected tour time. Please aim to arrive 10 minutes early at the hotel’s Casino entrance. With limited time for a private viewing of Stonehenge, we don’t want to waste a minute! Then, once everyone’s gathered, hop aboard a comfortable, air-conditioned coach bound for the ancient Stonehenge—or Bath if you’ve chosen the afternoon tour.
Stonehenge Private Access
Approximately 90 minutes later, you’ll find yourself at one of the world’s most fascinating landmarks. Believed to date back to 3000 BC, this prehistoric monument is a UNESCO World Heritage site and remains one of the greatest enigmas of human history. Some say it was an astronomical calendar, others believe it was a sacred burial ground—whatever the truth, standing in its shadow is one of those moments you’ll remember forever.
The best part? Your group will have private access to the stone circle itself, a rare privilege that lets you walk among these mighty stones before the site opens to the public. Whether you’ve chosen the early morning or evening tour, you’ll experience Stonehenge in a way few others do—up close and personal, without the usual crowds.
Walking Tour of Lacock
With Stonehenge checked off your list, it’s time to hop back into the coach and transfer to the village of Lacock. This little gem is famous for its well-preserved medieval layout, with 14th-century streets and buildings that look like they've been plucked straight from a period drama. And in fact, they have! Lacock has starred in numerous films and TV shows, including Pride and Prejudice and Harry Potter.
As you wander through the village, your guide will share stories of Lacock’s storied past, from its origins as a monastic settlement to its transformation into a bustling wool trade center. Then, when you’ve seen the village’s highlights, continue to The George Inn, a quintessentially British pub where you can choose to get a bite to eat or drink on your own.
Discover Bath’s Wonders
Next on your grand tour is the stunning city of Bath, famous for its thermal waters and magnificent Georgian architecture. On your walking tour, you’ll visit the Jane Austen Museum to delve into the life of one of England’s literary icons. You’ll also pass by the Sally Lunn tea rooms, perhaps popping in to try one of their famous buns, and pause for a photo up on the stunning Pulteney Bridge. Bath Abbey, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, is another must-see, with its intricate stained glass windows and vaulted ceilings.
Then, for the grand finale, venture into the Roman Baths. Constructed around 70 AD, this well-preserved complex once served as a grand public bathing and socializing hub for the Romans. During your visit today, you’ll see firsthand the impressive Great Bath, filled with naturally heated thermal waters, and wander through the intricate network of chambers, including the Sacred Spring and the Roman Temple.
Return to London
After an incredible day discovering some of England’s most historic sites, you’ll settle in for the ride back to London. The coach will deliver you right to Victoria Train Station, where you’ll bid farewell to your guide and fellow travelers, no doubt with a camera full of photos and a mind full of stories.
Whether you prefer a morning start or an afternoon adventure, this tour offers a tailored experience. Choose the morning tour, and you’ll visit Stonehenge in the quiet of dawn before exploring Lacock and Bath. Opt for the afternoon, and you’ll enjoy Bath’s Georgian splendor and Lacock’s medieval charm before capping the day with a peaceful, exclusive viewing of Stonehenge.

Growing up I always wanted to see Stonehenge after studying in in school. It always intrigued me! Taking this tour was a dream come true and I savored every moment of it. Getting in early before there were a lot of people made it even more magical. I will be back again on the solstice and would take this tour in a heartbeat.
