Day 1: London to Stonehenge

We head out of London for Wiltshire after our pick-ups in London. Your guide will captivate you during the journey by sharing fascinating information and anecdotes about the sites you will pass by and the Neolithic monuments you will be seeing today.

Reach West Kennet Long Barrow at 13:45.
Here, at a height of almost 5000 years, we shall trek up the slope to one of the largest Neolithic burial tombs in Britain. As you enter the burial chambers, your tour guide will narrate the intriguing history of the place. From here, you can also see Silbury Hill, Europe's biggest prehistoric man-made mound, whose purpose is still largely unclear and comparable in size to certain Egyptian pyramids.
