Book a full day-trip from London to discover three of the most fascinating places in England: explore Windsor Castle, an official Royal residence, visit Stonehenge, one of the world’s most famous prehistoric monuments and Oxford, one of the oldest cities in England.
Description
First, we'll board a comfortable coach at the designated time in central London, where you can relax until we arrive at Windsor Castle. The bus ride will take around an hour.
One hour from London, Windsor Castle is the largest occupied fortification with an 800-year-old tower. It has been built in a privileged location and is surrounded by a magnificent garden. We'll explore its rooms, admire its works of art, and visit St George’s Chapel. One of the Castle’s highlights is Queen Mary’s Doll House, a beautiful toy house built between 1921 and 1924 and which even had hot water and electricity.
The next stop will be Stonehenge, the United Kingdom’s most renowned megalithic monument. It was built with 40-ton prehistoric stones over 5,000 years ago. To this day, this landmark is a mystery, as it's not clear how it was built or what purpose it had.
After exploring Stonehenge, we'll head to the last stop of the day trip Oxford, one of the oldest cities in England and home to one of the most prestigious universities in the world. You’ll be able to admire “the city of dreaming spires” and buildings such as the Bodleian Library, one of the oldest in Europe. The charming streets and squares of Oxford will not leave you indifferent!
Finally, after around 11.5 hours, you’ll be back in London.
