Tailored Tours Welcomes You On Your Private Tour to Bath, Avebury and The Cotswolds From London. Please look below for some more information about your day:
1. Private Tour of Avebury
In the morning we travel to Avebury Stone Circle. Although it may not get the publicity and visitors of Stonehenge, Avebury proudly boasts the title of Europe’s largest stone circle. This enormous monument spans 1,000 metres in circumference, so large that it even has a pub inside! If you are looking for a place to walk amongst and touch Neolithic stones, no other site in England offers so much, truly an unrivalled experience.
2. Private Tour of Lacock
Just a short drive away is the picturesque village of Lacock. Once a booming market town, Lacock benefited from the glory days of Cotswold wool trade from their famous ‘Cotswold Lion’ sheep. The 800 year old abbey was dissolved by King Henry VIII during the Dissolution of the Monasteries. It later became the home of William Henry Fox-Talbot in what would become the setting for the first photograph negative in the world! Today many Harry Potter fans come to Lacock to see unique scenes from The Philosopher’s Stone, Chamber of Secrets & The Half Blood Prince!
3. Free Time in Bath
After Lacock, we have just short 30 minute drive into the city of Bath. Famed for its Roman Temple and Baths, Aquae Sulis was once a thriving Roman City that much of it can still be admired today. A visit to the Roman Baths Museum will enlighten you on how they behaved, bathed and worshipped their Goddess Sulis Minerva at the enchanting temple. After a recommended visit to the museum (not included in price), we suggest you take a bit of free time to walk around the city and stop for lunch. When you are ready to leave, your guide will pick you up and take you on a panoramic tour of the city to see The Queen Square, Circus and Royal Crescent.
4. Visit to Castle Combe
Castle Combe is a hidden gem in Wiltshire’s Cotswolds. Just a 30 minute drive from Bath, it’s the perfect little village to drop in on the drive back to London. The 17th Century Cottages that line the centre of the village boast unrivalled beauty when it comes to that quintessential countryside village feel. The old Manor House is now a 5* hotel and can be toured around in your private vehicle for spectacular postcard views.
