🧭 TOUR DESCRIPTION

This guided tour departs from London and travels into the ancient landscape of Wiltshire, home to some of Britain’s most important prehistoric sites.

Before arriving at Stonehenge, you will explore:

  • Avebury Stone Circle — the largest stone circle in the world
  • West Kennet Long Barrow — a Neolithic burial chamber over 5,000 years old

These sites provide important context for understanding Stonehenge and the people who built it.

As evening approaches, you will travel to Stonehenge for your Inner Circle access experience. Enter the stone circle itself after public closing time and explore the monument in a quieter, more atmospheric setting at sunset.

This unique access transforms your visit from a standard viewing into a much more immersive and memorable experience.

🪨 WHAT IS INNER CIRCLE ACCESS?

Inner Circle access allows you to enter the stone circle itself, rather than viewing Stonehenge from the public pathway.

This special access takes place outside normal opening hours, giving you the opportunity to walk among the stones and experience the monument in a calm and atmospheric setting.

🎟️ WHAT MAKES THIS TOUR SPECIAL

Access inside the Stonehenge circle is extremely limited. Most visitors experience Stonehenge from a distance, but this tour allows you to step beyond those restrictions and experience the monument as few people ever do.

  • Exclusive Inner Circle access at sunset inside Stonehenge
  • Visit Avebury Stone Circle and West Kennet Long Barrow
  • Experience Stonehenge after closing hours in a quieter setting
  • Guided tour bringing prehistoric Britain to life
  • Comfortable return travel from London

This tour is ideal for travellers who want a deeper and more immersive experience, combining multiple ancient sites with a once-in-a-lifetime Inner Circle visit.
