Itinerary

​​​​​The adventure begins. Saying a temporary goodbye to beautiful Bath, your first destination is one that most have heard of. Many have yearned to witness. Endless have marvelled at.

The standing stones of Stonehenge are one of the grandest sites known today. Those who visit take a break from the modern world for a few moments and become transported back to a long-forgotten world, a world where spirituality, paganism, and worship defined people. 

But these aren't the only stones you should marvel at. In the sweet village of Avebury, visitors come to wander amidst the largest prehistoric stone circle in the world. Mixed in among manor houses and nature, this site truly is worth a visit. 

After lunch, we travel deep into rural Wiltshire to Lacock village, famous for its picturesque streets, historic buildings, and role as a television and film location. The Abbey in the heart of the village has its own woodland grounds, and a quirky country house with fascinating architectural styles.

The last stop of the day is Castle Combe, often called one of the prettiest villages in England. Fans of movies like War Horse and Neil Gaiman's Stardust may just recognize this spot, so get your camera ready. From here, it's only a short drive back to Bath.

  • FAQs:
    Do you offer hotel pickups in the departure cities?
    - The UK and Ireland's historic city centres are full of narrow streets and winding roads. So, to speed up your departure, we only pick up from our central meeting points. What's more is leaving the city using the most direct route also reduces the carbon footprint of our tours.
    Is there parking close to the departure point?
    - We don't recommend bringing your car into the centre of our departure cities. It can be hard to find parking, and there are excellent public transportation services.
    When should I get to the departure point?
    - Arrive 15 minutes before your departure time. Due to waiting restrictions, we can't wait for you if you're late.
    What happens if I'm late or miss the tour?
    - If you're late for your tour, our cancellation policy applies. 100% charges are applicable, and you will not be entitled to a refund or alternative.
    Can Itineraries change?
    - Your tour will always follow the itinerary as closely as possible. Your driver-guide will keep you up to date on the road, and we'll try to get in touch about any large changes prior to your departure.
    Can I pre-book a specific seat?
    - Due to logistical reasons, we're unable to let you pre-book a seat on the bus. But our comfortable 16-seat mini-coaches have huge windows. So, you'll always get a good view.
    Are there toilets on the bus?
    - Unfortunately, we have no on-board toilet facilities, but you'll have regular comfort breaks.
    How do you cater for people with accessibility needs?
    - We aim to accommodate everyone.
    How much time do I get off the bus?
    - We want you to enjoy Britain and Ireland. And we believe the best way to do this is to get you off the mini-coach and out exploring. So, we give you plenty of time to take photos, go walking, and explore ancient ruins.
    Why do you exclude visitor attractions?
    - We exclude visitor attractions in your tour price because it lets you travel your way. It means you can pamper yourself with a luxury lunch or skip an attraction whenever you feel like it.
    Do we need to bring our own lunch?
    - You don't need to. We stop in small towns, villages, and rural eateries where you can choose whatever meal pleases both your taste buds and your budget.
    Should I tip the driver-guide?
    - Let's be honest, our driver-guides would never refuse a cheeky bonus. But it's up to you, and the amount is entirely at your discretion.
    What about travel insurance?
    - We advise you take out travel insurance.
    What is ABTOT?
    - You're protected by ABTOT when you chose to let us reserve your accommodation on a multi-day tour. This means you can claim back anything you've paid us if we become bankrupt.
