This monumental stone circle is still very much a place of strong spiritual and esoteric significance - a haunting echo from Britain's forgotten past. 

It is a mystery as to why the stones were placed here and what purpose they served. Why not wander around the site with your expert guide and see if you can attempt to unlock the secrets of the stones for yourself?

Salisbury Cathedral is a short drive away, and what a surprise is in for you as you get to the splendour of this 13th-century English Gothic masterpiece, take in the tallest spire in Great Britain, and view the Magna Carta (which dates back to 1215). See the Magna Carta –one of democracy’s oldest documents.  

Marvel at the oldest working, medieval clock in the world and enjoy a relaxing transfer back to Central London after the tour.
