I am delighted to offer you an unparalleled tour experience. I extend a warm invitation for you to explore the enchanting region of England, particularly my native Dorset—a county rich with history and culture, celebrated by the renowned author Thomas Hardy.

Join me to experience the UNESCO World Heritage Jurassic Coast, renowned for its world-famous fossils and geological wonders, as well as the idyllic views and tranquil strolls through villages dotted with thatched pubs and secretive coves with tales of smugglers. Our journey may lead us to the romantic ruin of Corfe Castle, on the mysterious Isle of Purbeck or a pilgrimage to Salisbury's magnificent cathedral with it's famous spire or perhaps the awe-inspiring landscape of Stonehenge and Avebury which stand as a testament to our ancient past.

An ideal end to your cruise with a journey up through the rolling green hills of the southern english countryside to visit the magical and mysterious Stonehenge high up on Salisbury Plain. Just one of the advantages of a private small grouped tour is that we have a chance to arrive here before anybody else. Walk around the stones with your guide where you'll learn about some of it's secrets and then visit the Interpretation centre and museum. A short drive from Stonehenge brings you to the very pretty, charming and quintessentially English medieval Cathedral City of Salisbury. Enter the 800 year old Cathedral with its famous spire and one of the worlds oldest clocks. Visit the chapter house to see the famous Magna Carta. Then spend some relaxing time wandering the medieval streets and perhaps have lunch at one of the quaint pubs or Coaching Inns full of character Finish this lovely afternoon with a 1. 5-2hr drive to your airport hotel. *PLEASE see what's included and what is extra*
