    Getting TO/AROUND: You will find organized bus tours from every larger city in southwestern England, such as Bristol and Bath. Even tours from London are offered! I chose a "Mad Max" full day tour from Bath: The tour costed 25,00 pounds but had a couple of advantages. It saved time taking me to places which are not as easily reached by pulic transport. The tour's first station was Stonehenge, arriving there at 10:00 in the morning. This was probably the greatest advantage as Stonehenge becomes full from 11:00 o' clock on. Other stations on this tour were Avebury (more stones), Lacock and Castle Combe (beuatiful villages). The tour takes place in a 16-seater minibus. The driver will provide you with information about all the places you are going to visit during the whole tour.

    This tour leaves at 8:45 am from Orange Grove (in front of the "Glass House Shop"). You can just show up and pay there. However, the tour is often fully booked. So I would like to recommend to pre-book the tour. This can be done at the tourist information or via the website below.

     My two visits were 50 years apart, but the magic is still there . Audioguides are really helpful, but the first visit was special with few tourists, freedom to climb on the stones even. It was really out of the way then.
