5.00So glad we chose this tour! We visited Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, had lunch in Lacock, and explored Bath — such a perfect itinerary in one day. Our tour guide James explained everything clearly and made the experience really enjoyable. Big thanks to our driver Carlos as well — smooth and comfortable ride throughout the day. Lunch around 3pm in Lacock was delicious, and every stop had shops where you could grab food and drinks, which was super convenient. Highly recommend this tour if you want to see multiple iconic spots in a well-organized
Great tour!
