This was a great tour with Tara and John and great tips! Good idea to get there really early to beat the crowd and then go counter clockwise around the circle to get the views closest to the stones before the crowd.

Thank you for your review. This is a half day tour with a guide on board. Tara and John make a great team and are very experienced. This is a great tour if you want to beat the crowds in the morning and it is a very relaxed tour.
Very interesting tour. The guide was very knowledgeable. Very patient driver too! The time allocated was perfect.
Overall, a good experience with London Tours. Everything ran on time, and the trip was well organised. The bus was fairly average, not particularly comfortable, but not uncomfortable either and I appreciated having charging ports at the seats.
The tour guide was friendly, although as someone who generally prefers exploring independently rather than taking group tours, I found some of the commentary a little excessive. At times, it felt like he was talking simply to fill the silence, and only some of the information felt relevant or added much to the experience.
One thing I would have appreciated knowing in advance was that there would be a stop at a service station along the way, where we could purchase breakfast and refreshments. Since the tour started early, that would have been helpful information when planning the morning.
The trip was a convenient way to get there from London. With a little more practical information beforehand and slightly more focused commentary, the experience could have been even better.
What a great experience! We last minute booked this excursion. Only to find out when we arrived to the bus that we had booked it incorrectly for the next day, and this bus was full. The tour guide, Trisha, was so sweet and proactive. She instantly contacted the other bus (the Stonehenge and Oxford tour option) and not only got us a seat on it, but called them to get them to turn around and come get us. Sam, the tour guide for THAT tour, was extremely nice, knowledgeable, and friendly. We loved chatting with him every chance we got. It was such a great, magical day. The Stonehenge was just as we always dreamed it would be, and Oxford was such a lovely, unexpected addition to our day. We even ran into Trisha at one of the stops, who wad so happy to see us and relieved we were able to be there. We highly recommend this company and their tours, and would use them again in a heartbeat. Thank you Sam, and Trisha, for such a magical day!
Slow pace and relaxing. Provided enough information about tour and wasn’t overwhelming. Easy pace. Highly recommend.
The entire day was good. Dress in layers, it's a little windy. Go as early as possible because it gets very busy
Our tour guide Louise did a great job with the history and background on the 2 hour ride to the Stonehenge. We felt we had plenty of time to enjoy the site, and we were fortunate to have picture perfect weather. Highly recommend!
The morning trip from London to Stonehenge was excellent.
Everything went off on time and our tour guide, Sinead and the driver John were excellent as well. Sinead was very informative and very personable and fun.
Stonehenge is a beautiful historical place and the drive out from London in the early morning, viewing the English countryside, was well worth the drive.
Transportation was perfect, Gil the guide friendly and efficient. Made for a perfect experience . Highly recommended
Would definitely recommend! Sinead and driver John were great, Sinead gave great detail to attractions along the way. The bus was very comfortable and offered charging stations for phones. Trip provided one stop from London to Stonehenge. Early morning departure allowed for fewer crowds.
Great bus ride, great guides. Go early, fewer people at Stonehenge. Highly recommended tour, fun day.
Tour guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. excellent tour and definitely worth it. Very educational.
Gabriel was excellent. My bucket list has now been checkmarked. Recommend this to everyone visiting and be amazed
Very nice tour to Stonehenge . Leaves early to beat the crowds which was the best part. Arrived back in London at 2 pm and still had the afternoon to sightsee.
Well organized, perfect trip. Too many tourists hamming it up taking funny photos for my taste. It is a holy site, what if we went to another country and disrespected a temple or a cathedral? Would that be OK? Silent reverence should be mandatory.
Absolutely worth the early time-slot to have the rest of the day to continue the adventure after. Both guide Giles and bus driver Robert were incredible the whole time. Very informative and wonderful energy! 10/10 experience
Full morning and early afternoon round trip to historically interesting site. Rainy day so bus trip through the English countryside not very interesting. Glad we finally got to see it.
It was great and well-organized. Our guide, Tiger, was very informative. We enjoyed the museum as well.
On time, professional and plenty of time to tour and eat and enjoy the scenes. Tour guide was very nice and the drive was great

Thank you for your review. This is a great tour with guide on board. It leaves early from Gloucester Rd , you see Stonehenge quickly and early and you are back in London for 2pm .
Nice day trip from London, just enough hours . Easy to find the meeting place. Giles our guide was great!
This tour was so well organized, the tour guide and bus driver were spot on all day. I did not feel rushed. The tour guide interacted with everyone Shari g good anecdotes along the way.
What an incredible experience! Visiting Stonehenge has always been something I wanted to do, and this tour made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Everything was well organised, from the journey to the arrival, and we had plenty of time to take in the amazing history and beauty of the site.
Stonehenge itself was absolutely breathtaking, it’s one of those places that you really have to see in person to appreciate. The tour was informative, enjoyable, and stress-free, making it perfect for anyone visiting for the first time.
A huge thank you to the team for making our trip so memorable. Definitely a must-do experience when visiting England! 🪨✨🇬🇧
A great day. Guide was good during bus ride. Otherwise you are on your own.
It’s worth the time it takes to drive from London
It was excellent!
Fraya and Ed were punctual, knowledgeable, kind and all around good tour guides.
We were so grateful to have pick up and drop off transportation, also to have time to see the stones and to use the two hours how we best saw fit.
It was truly a great overall experience! If you have learned about or are curious about Stonehenge, this tour would be a good one to do!

Thank you for your review. Freya and Ed make a great team. This is a great tour if you just wish want to visit Stonehenge and be back in London for 2 pm.
Thank you for taking the time to review this tour.
Freya was an outstanding guide. She gave us the perfect blend of information and relaxing time on the bus. She had us well prepared for what we saw at the site. Stonehenge did not disappoint. What a fantastic experience!
Loved this tour! Our guide was very friendly. Meeting point was easy to find. We were able to enjoy Stonehenge for two hours. We were dropped off in the same spot. Our guide shared history and recommendations. All around wonderful experience.
I accidentally booked two adults and two seniors and Emily our guide caught it at the coach before we left for Stonehead and said she would notify the office. I contacted the office via email regarding my refund and have not had any response and highly disappointed because the tour was really nice.

Hi there,
It has only been 2 days since your tour. The refund takes time to process , rest assured it is on the way and you will get your money. And to be fair , you should have contacted Viator about this yourself as they have the money , not us the tour company. But seen as you have been delayed in contacting them, I will do it on your behalf.
Dress in layers, and if you need more, I purchase a hoodie and T shirt for reasonable prices in the gift shop.
This trip was a birthday gift to myself, it did not disappoint!
It’s a long ride but the bus is comfortable and the guides are great!
Seeing Stonehenge in person was incredible!
Sinead the guide was brilliant and obviously knew her stuff . She made the trip easy and was full of informations
