Private Stonehenge and Bath City Tour from Bath — Local Guide & Transport Included
Select participants and date
You step out of an air-conditioned car and the city exhales: Georgian terraces, honey-colored stone catching the first light, and the faint hiss of the River Avon. Your guide — a native of Bath who has visited Stonehenge more than two hundred times — greets you with the kind of easy authority that turns streets into stories. The morning is spent on foot, moving from a high viewpoint that lays the city’s crescents and circuses before you, down to narrow lanes where Roman foundations still hum underfoot.

Adventure Tips
Dress for English weather
Stonehenge is exposed and Bath involves walking — bring a waterproof layer and windproof jacket even on sunny forecasts.
Wear sturdy shoes
Cobbles in Bath and grassy, sometimes muddy ground at Stonehenge mean flat-soled walking shoes or light hiking shoes are best.
Book morning departures
Early starts usually beat tour-bus congestion at Stonehenge and give softer light for photos in Bath.
Bring ID for admissions
All admissions are included by the operator, but bring personal ID and any booking confirmation for smooth entry.
