I love this tour! I will paint an imaginary picture in our minds that will help us imagine 5000 years of history. I will meet and greet you from your Hotel and travel to Stonehenge. We can stop for beverages or lunch along the way. Walk up to the stones (half an hour) or take the shuttle bus. Enjoy the history and imagine what neolithic man might have been like. Drive to The Beautiful Salisbury Cathedral, And take in its magnificent tallest spire in the country. A record it has been kept since 1549. What a historical gem. See one of the original copies of the Magna Carta. This tour can be adapted to suit your needs. Because of the distance I would reccomend its suitability for a family day out if no cases are involved (3 flip down seats facing backwards). If its a Southampton connection a 3 person maximum plus cases. If its for more people I can arrange for another vehicle and driver to join us. Wheelchair access maximum 3 people. Drive back to London OR Drive on to Southampton
