About this experience
Embark on a journey to the enigmatic Stonehenge - a mystical collection of 5000-year-old Neolithic stones, located on the rolling plains of Salisbury, Wiltshire. This monumental stone circle is still very much a place of strong spiritual and esoteric significance - a haunting echo from Britain's forgotten past and remains a mystery as to why the stones were placed here and what purpose they served. There is also an excellent visitors’ centre that will help to shed light on the fascinating people who lived and worshipped at Stonehenge. 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), 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.

4 verified traveler reviews for Stonehenge & Salisbury Cathedral: Private Day Trip from London. Ratings and reviews provided by Viator and Tripadvisor.
Tour driver a no show.
Our driver never showed up. When I called the company, they contacted the driver who they said was “confused” about time. They had no driver available to replace him. I booked and paid two months in advance and called to confirm four days in advance. Tour never happened. Very disappointed. We live in the United States so it is an opportunity lost.
Response from the operator: We offer our sincere unreserved apologies for this occurrence Kathleen. This situation has happened only too rare, and we share your disappointment. On this occasion, it was not possible to find you guys a suitable replacement, at late notice, which would also have met our high standards of quality control. The immense popularity of our services has led to a high demand in the peak season, and we are therefore now taking steps to rectify the supply and demand quandary by training up more crew members to meet our required standards. We instructed the total refund of your full tour fees immediately on cancellation.

I climb the Spire at Salisbury Cathedral. Amazing
The Experience was like no other and so surreal. You have to climb the Spire to make sure you experience the view also.
Response from the operator: We hope this memory will stay with you for a lifetime! Thanks so much for reporting your experience!

Relaxing way to see Stonehenge
We looked at several tours that went to more sites but wanted to take our time. This tour was just right. Mick picked us up promptly for our hotel and drove us out to Salisbury to see the cathedral. He walked around with us without being overbearing and let us go at our leisure. Always around if we had questions. Afterwards he found a terrific pub for us to enjoy lunch and then on to Stonehenge. Afterwards he drove us the 2 hours back to central London while we napped. Terrific day and fantastic guide.
Response from the operator: Thanks for such a glowing review Kimberly, and we are proud and privileged that Mick Greenwood is a Black Cab Heritage Tour Guide.

Amazing
Amazing tour! Our tour guide Barry was just awesome. So full of knowledge and did everything possible to provide us with comfort. I learn so much in this tour about the history of the sites we got to visit. A must for anyone who travels to London.
Response from the operator: We are so pleased that you both enjoyed the skill sets of Barry Ivens, who thought you guys were ‘amazing’ tourists!

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Stonehenge & Salisbury Cathedral: Private Day Trip from London: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does Stonehenge & Salisbury Cathedral: Private Day Trip from London cost?
+
Prices start at $260 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Stonehenge & Salisbury Cathedral: Private Day Trip from London take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is Stonehenge & Salisbury Cathedral: Private Day Trip from London worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Stonehenge & Salisbury Cathedral: Private Day Trip from London?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Stonehenge & Salisbury Cathedral: Private Day Trip from London suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Stonehenge & Salisbury Cathedral: Private Day Trip from London?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Stonehenge & Salisbury Cathedral: Private Day Trip from London start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs, The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
