What To Expect

Avebury Stone Circle
After an early start departing London, we will take you on a beautiful countryside drive past the towns of Hungerford & Marlborough on our way to visit the largest stone circle in the world. At Avebury, not only will you marvel at the sheer size of the monument, but have a choice to actually touch the ancient stones and enhance all it’s supernatural energies.

As we enter into the county of Wiltshire, we visit the enchanting village of Lacock. Famed for its picturesque beauty, Lacock attracts visitors from all over the world in search of filmsets of popular movie and tv series from Harry Potter to Downton Abbey.
Your tour guide will tell you the history of the Abbey, as well as pointing out the Village Lockup and Tithe Barn that make Lacock unique.

Bath
The longest stop of the day on this tour is saved for the only Unesco World Heritage City in England. Bath has it all, from Roman Temple's to magnificent Georgian rows of housing like The Royal Crescent and Circus.
Your guide will tell you all the stories from the legend of Bladud to The Roman Invasion of Britain as you travel to the city, where you will then be granted 2.5 hours of free time to enjoy The Roman Baths Museum (Entry not included) and stop for lunch.

Fantastic day in Bath, Avebury and Cotswalds

There were 15 of us in two vans and we spent the day with Oz and Nick. They were both amazing guides, sharing interesting and unusual facts and stories on the drive and at our destinations. They were flexible (you kind of have to be when there are 15 friends traveling together!) and so much fun to be around. If I go back to London I would absolutely use them again for another tour!
Fantastic!

This was an amazing tour with an incredible tour guide, Oz! So informative, and kept us women charmed with history and interesting British tidbits!!! So pleasant to spend the day with this incredible company!!
Great Trip!!

OZ knew so much about British History, it was amazing to drive with him all day. The vans were clean and it all was run very efficiently. The small town we went to that had the Angel Pub was awesome and we felt like we were in a Harry Potter movie just walking around it. Avebury was better than Stonehenge as we could really touch the stones and walk around them, and it wasn't very crowded.
A truly Tailored Tour and amazing day with interesting and fun tour guides.

We spent a beautiful day in Bath at the museum, old town and abbey, a lovely lunch in the Cotswolds village of Lacock where we also spotted locations from Harry Potter movies, and then explored the giant stones of Avebury, where we learned about the history of the stones' excavations, Druid rituals and even tried out a pair of divining rods between two of the large entryway stones. We ran into lots of traffic back into London because of road work, and we were lucky enough to hear the history of British kings and queens from Charlemagne to the present by Professor Oz, who peppered the history with interesting stories and myths. Both Oz and Nick were amazing tour guides, and were extremely fun and patient with our group of fifteen. Oz planned the excursion, but was very accommodating as we "tailored" it to our interests. I will always use them when I plan day trips around England in the future.
Eye opening tour of the country

We’ve lived in Swindon for 15 years but never thought of taking a tour of the local area but so glad we did. Like most people our holiday got cancelled this year so we had to come up with a new plan to keep the kids happy. The wife suggested doing some day trips and looked up companys that dont just run a big tour where they try and cram as many people on as possible and treat you like cattle. We wanted to stay safe and decide our own schedule without the hassle of all the talking. Luckily Tailored Tours were a godsend. They suggested this tour and even said they would pick us up and drop us back off at home!
We were blown away with the tour. We’d been to Bath before but we didn’t know half the stuff we found out with Oz and we never went to Castle Coombe or Lacock before. Amazing what there is around when look.
Recommend anyone to take a tour with these guys. Already booked a tour to Stratford and Oxford for next year and looking forward to it massively!
