Windsor Castle is a working royal residence and planned closures may be subject to change. have a look at these different tours visiting 2-4 locations. If Her Majesty is in Windsor during your visit, you may be lucky enough to see the Royal Standard flying on the flagpole of the Round Tower. Windsor Castle (the whole castle) is closed from June 4, 15. Leave central London at 8:30am on a luxury coach and head to the remarkable Windsor Castle, which is less than 1 hour away.. These thermal springs have given the city its name. I then attempted to walk lunch off by walking along the river right round to the train station and looping back into the city. Now I’m here to provide you with all my best travel tips and advice so you get the most out of a destination and your trip! After the walking tour you will also have some free time to wander around this beautiful market town. However, you can take the taxi to Salisbury then take the train to Bath Spa. My first stop after leaving was, of course, the iconic Circus, a beautiful circle of houses that curve around, next up and nearby was the Royal Crescent, a row of houses that bend in a Crescent shape… unsurprisingly. I only took one walk around (along with multiple photos) because after all it is just some old rocks in the middle of a field but I’m still so glad I got to see it. Free! The city’s unique thermal springs rise in the site and the Baths still flow with natural hot water. The Stonehenge Bus Tour (usually an orange double-decker) operates a Hop-on, hop-off service to Stonehenge with an average journey time of about 30 minutes. From Stonehenge to Bath it took us 2 hours, along the way we passed through some lovely Countryside and some nice little villages. This activity will have a maximum of 52 travelers. The last stop in Bath will be the superb Roman Baths. You will receive your confirmation immediately. We will send you a voucher that you can show on your phone to take part in the activity. Capital cities can be overwhelming at times. Read about my tours here. Bath is very walkable and it’s very easy to take any cute street that takes your fancy and not get too lost and the back streets were by far the prettiest. I ended my time in Bath having a late lunch at a lovely Italian place called Joya down by the river which I would 100% recommend (I would also recommend taking snacks on this trip as it was the middle of the afternoon by the time I ate). Continue your journey to Salisbury Plains, where Stonehenge, one of the world’s most famous megalithic monuments, has stood for around 5,000 years. To this day, it is still a mystery how the stones got there and what the site was used for. Our tour guide Bruce and bus driver Tony were top notch!
You’ll be back in central London at approximately 7:45pm and you can either get off at Kensington or Victoria Station. The coach will then continue to the fabulous city of Bath, on the banks of the River Avon. Only drawback was not being able to enter the Roman Baths at Bath. Examples of the houses the people who built Stonehenge would have lived in. It took us nearly 2 hours to get to Stonehenge and just before we got there our guide was back on the mic giving us some really interesting information about the historic and mysterious site. Yay! Down in the main area where the Abbey and Roman Baths are plenty of shops, to one side are the big chain, high street stores like in any city and to the other were a lot more independent stores and cafes which were really lovely to walk around. Hopefully I can come back when the Roman Baths are open and explore more of each.
