Full-Day Stonehenge and Avebury Tour from Glastonbury
Description
Tor’s Tour of Stonehenge is unlike any. The way he shares his visions of a world hardly known by historians is as if you are being transported into a timeless dream and seeing the ancients magically erecting the stone circle and aligning them to the solstices and equinoxes in person. He then takes you to a very special site that is only visited by 1% of tourists, here you can walk amongst 5000 years of history and imagine their motivation of creating such amazing sites. After a great British pub lunch, we head off to Avebury, the largest surviving stone circle in the world, a site where you sit in the seat of the ancient Arch Druids and learn about the stars in the way they taught. You will not forget this day in a hurry, travelling through time with Tor’s magical vision of delights.

We had two absolutely magical days with Tor. First, exploring the Glastonbury Tor and all the sacred sites around Glastonbury. The stories and connections Tor has of the Tor itself, Chalice well and all the sacred sites around Glastonbury was wonderful and really brought the magic of Avalon alive for us and generated a little spark that will stay forever. The second was a full day trip to Stonehenge and Avebury. Tor, really brought both of these places to life for us, we didn't feel like Tourists, but experinced the magic and mystery of the sites and connecting with them in this way stirs a little something once lost, brought to life again. Thank you very much for an amazing experience, Tor. We wll be back to explore more of the UK with you!
Tor was our guide. He was great!! Knowledgeable and right to the point. Viator is the way to go if you take a tour!
Tor's tour of Stonehenge, Avebury and more was excellent. The time was well planned and Tor is extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour.
The excursion to Stonehenge and Avebury was my second tour with Tor's Tours and guide Michael Tyack, so right away I knew it would be fabulous. It was all that and so much more! Best day ever in the trip of a lifetime to England. If you're looking for a deeply spiritual experience with a fun group of like-minded souls, you owe it to yourself to go with Tor's Tours. It's not the same old same old. Our guide Michael made the day so special, I can't begin to express my gratitude. Happy, happy, joy, joy :)
Marvelous for spiritual seekers and adventurers who want to know some real lore and backstory of what might have been the purpose of the stone circles. And a great tourguide (Michael) who's just an overall great guy and took us to some extra amazing spots on the road, including a crop circle! <3
We did Tor's tour of the Tor with Michael on Tuesday, and then carried on to visit Stonehenge and Avebury with him the following day ( so two separate tours). Excellent experience, Michael is so knowledgeable, entertaining and friendly. It was a true pleasure and adventure to learn more about the hisotry of these old sites as well as Michaels own theories and knowledge. I can really recommend both tours.
Thank you for your wonderful response. I agree, Michael is amazing.
It was a great memory. The tourist guide is brilliant, he have had excellent knowledge of the Stonehedge and Avebury.
This tour was guided by Tor of Tor on Tour out of Glastonbury. Tor is an amazing guide, very informative, very patient and very flexible. His knowledge of the area, sacred and otherwise, is immense and no question put to him goes unanswered. He is accompanied by his dogs who are engaging and a delightful addition. This is one of the best tours I have ever been on.
Thank you for your amazing review. I hope you return one day.
A great visit and a wonderful guide. Tor was very thoughtful and entertaining. Above all, his explanations were rich and interesting. Would repeat without a doubt.
Delighted to hear you had a great visit with Tor as your guide! It's wonderful that his thoughtful and entertaining approach, along with rich explanations, made the experience memorable. Your willingness to repeat speaks volumes about the quality of the tour.
I highly recommend Tor's historical and spiritual expertise. He is a true intermediary--a guardian of the land. My experience at Avebury, among those ancient stones, was life-changing.
