Stonehenge Tour

Visit Stonehenge, the greatest Stone Age Monument in England and one of the world’s greatest mysteries

A Stonehenge Tour is unmissable because…

Stonehenge, the enigmatic circle of upright stones in the middle of the English countryside, has to be seen to be believed. It’s one of the best-known prehistoric monuments in Europe, a UNESCO World Heritage Site – and definitely one to tick off the bucket list.
