Description
Explore over 5,000 years of British history in one day on this fantastic full-day tour, from the Neolithic period right the way through to Medieval England and the modern day.
Rising majestically above the skyline of Windsor sits Windsor Castle, the ancestral home of the British Royal family for more than 900 years and an official residence of the Queen of England. Marvel at the splendour of the State Apartments, the grandest apartments in England. Inside St George’s Chapel, where HRH Prince Harry married Ms Meghan Markle in 2018, are the tombs of prominent previous monarchs. Catch a typical display of British pomp at the Changing the Guard ceremony, which takes place every morning.
Travel back in time to Neolithic Britain and come face-to-face with a 5,500-year-old man and over 250 prehistoric objects at the world-class visitor exhibition centre. Visit the mysterious monument at Stonehenge and learn how it was built using rudimental tools and stone from quarries hundreds of miles away, as well as its link to the Summer and Winter solstice.
Your final stop is Oxford, famous for its university; the University of Oxford, the oldest in the English-speaking world. Oxford itself is known for its distinctive architecture and holds the unique accolade of having examples of every architectural period going as far back as Saxon times. Wander its quaint cobbled streets on a walking tour of the city with your expert tour guide, who will bring the history and charm of this ancient city to life.
