I have lived and worked in the South West of England for 16 years - much of that time as a broadcast journalist. So I know the people, places and culture of this region inside and out. My carefully curated, tried and tested Day Tours from Bath (see profile) allow you to visit the very best that this beautiful and historic region of England has to offer. Tour with me in the comfort of my luxury Mercedes touring vehicle and you will leave with memories that will last a lifetime. We'll explore stunning scenery, historic towns and villages, world famous sites and avoid the tourist places now overrun with coach tours from London. The UNESCO World Heritage City of Bath is the best base from which to explore The Cotswolds, Stonehenge, the hidden secrets of Cheddar Gorge, Glastonbury, and Wells (recently voted the UK's no. 1 visitor destination)… Jump on the direct train from London Paddington to Bath and let's begin the adventure! **All tours start and end in Bath or Bristol **Alternative nearby start/end locations can be discussed at the extra cost of a customised tour **London or Heathrow pickup/drop off is NOT available Choose from: - Private tour to Stonehenge and Avebury Stone Circles from Bath - Private tours to the Cotswolds from Bath - Private tours to Glastonbury, Wells and Cheddar Gorge from Bath - Private tour to Blenheim Palace from Bath - Private tour to Wales from Bath International Certification in Tour Guide Excellence from Aquila's Centre for Excellence; Member of Mayor of Bath's Corps of Honorary Guides; Local authority Operator, Driver and Vehicle Private Hire licences; Fully insured: 'Hire and Reward' and Public Liability'.

Together we will explore the world's largest Stone Age landscape - so unique and historic that it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visit Stonehenge and Avebury Stone Circles, two of the greatest and most iconic marvels of prehistoric Britain. Wander around Stonehenge with your personal guide, travel back in time and discover what inspired Stone Age people to start erecting this monument 4,500 years ago. Get up close and personal with the world's largest Stone Circle at Avebury - a completely different experience to Stonehenge and untouched by tourism. A mediaeval village has developed around the stones at this surreal, timeless site. Marvel at one of the country's oldest and largest Neolithic burial tombs, West Kennet Long Barrow. Enjoy lunch in a traditional English country pub!
- On arrival at Stonehenge I will offer you an entertaining and informative tour of this unique Stone Circle. You'll learn about recent archaeological discoveries which have changed our understanding of this iconic monument. - Enjoy a traditional pub lunch at an historic inn. - Explore the world's largest Stone Circle of Avebury. This is a completely different experience to Stonehenge - wander freely amongst these giant stones and touch them to feel their aura! Comparatively little is known about the origins of Avebury and this site is incredibly still something of a hidden secret. - West Kennet Long Barrow is one of the oldest sites in this UNESCO World Heritage Landscape. Let's enter the tomb exploring chambers that once contained the remains of 50 people! - En route back to Bath we'll pass by myserious Silbury Hill the Cherhill White Horse, carved into the chalk hillside nearly 250 years ago.
