The tour included a narrated one hour ride to Stonehenge (and back) on a comfortable, air conditioned van. The driver was friendly and able to answer questions. We were allowed ample time to view the site and exhibits.
This is a great half day experience - a beautiful ride through the exquisite countryside between Bath and Stonehenge with some light and just right commentary from our guide/driver. We loved wandering through the site and were very glad that our guide encouraged us to explore the museum, as well. All together, a fabulous day.
The tour from Bath to Stonehenge with Scraper Tours was convenient. Scarper Tours was quick to reply to my email. Dan, the driver, gave us commentaries along the way that prepared us for what to see at Stonehenge plus other interesting information about places along the way. He pointed out the White Horse chalk carving in Wiltshire which we could see from a distance. The ride was very smooth and an informative one. Our ticket included the entrance fee to Stonehenge. We took the tour with our luggage, left the luggage in the bus and got them after our tour of Stonehenge. . Dan was very helpful to point out the bus stop & bus number for Salisbury, our final destination for the day. Thank you, Dan.
Sally was a great tour host, lovely personality
The meeting point was easy to locate. Dan is a friendly, softly spoken , courteous driver with great knowledge of Bath and surrounding areas, pointing out landmarks and things of intetest , which he shared with the group on the bus along the way. The timings were accurate, Dan gave us all the outline of the days trip before we left Bath and reiterated it before we left the bus at Stonehenge. I would recommend this tour to anyone, it was thoroughly enjoyable and made better by having a great driver!
