2-Day Cotswolds, Bath & Stonehenge Tour

DAY ONE The tour begins by departing London and travelling towards the countryside of The Cotswolds; home to charming landscape that has a history of sheep-farming. Our first stop is the market town of Chipping Camden, home to ‘Britain’s most beautiful street’ and over 200 ancient buildings in the town centre. We’ll continue along the lanes towards the town of Stow-on-the-Wold. The town inspired Tolkien and is home to England's oldest pub and we'll stop in Stow for lunch. This afternoon we continue through The Cotswolds towards Bourton-on-the-Water, affectionately known as the Venice of the Cotswolds. Stroll along the river and across the quaint low-level bridges. Then we continue along the winding country lanes towards the settlement of Bibury, described as the 'prettiest village in England.' Wander along the iconic Arlington Row, one of the most iconic Cotswolds scenes. Then we'll travel to the traditional Cotswolds town of Cirencester, where we'll spend the night. Overnight - The Cotswolds DAY TWO This morning we depart Cirencester, but remain in The Cotswolds as we visit Castle Combe, one of the UK’s most beautiful villages. Here we can enjoy the quiet atmosphere and stroll along the river. Next, we make the short journey to arguably Britain’s most beautiful city; Bath. Founded by the Romans, it is said that the spring waters in Bath have healing powers. There is much to see and do in the city, including visiting the iconic Roman Baths, seeing elegant Georgian architecture and exploring fantastic museums. There will be lots of time to explore Bath and have lunch. This afternoon we travel to the world’s most famous stone circle; Stonehenge. Shrouded in mystery, the origin of these stones remains unclear. Constructed approximately 4,500 years ago, many theories have been suggested regarding the origin of Stonehenge; burial ground, solar calendar or alien construction. Take time to explore the site and get close to the stones. By late-afternoon we'll depart Stonehenge and return to London by approximately 18.00, where our tour concludes.
