Itinerary
Your coach will leave from the designated meeting point at 8am sharp – make sure you’re there minimum 15 minutes before to check in! The first stop of your adventure will be the world’s oldest and largest occupied castle, Windsor Castle, where you will arrive at approximately 9:30am. With its sweeping landscaped gardens and a striking round tower, it's easy to see why Windsor Castle is King favourite weekend residence. Enjoy wandering through the lavish State Apartments - home to priceless artworks by Rembrandt, Leonardo da Vinci and many more - and visit the beautiful St. George's Chapel, the final resting place of former monarchs including Henry VIII and the wedding venue of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle!
Step inside St George’s Chapel, located on the sprawling grounds, where notorious King Henry VIII and his favourite wife, Jane Seymour, are buried, as are Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother. St. George's Chapel is one of the finest examples of gothic architecture in England. It has been the setting for many royal weddings and is the burial place of ten sovereigns. The Chapel is dedicated to the patron saint of the Order of the Garter. Britain's highest Order of Chivalry. *St. George’s Chapel is closed to visitors on Sundays as services are held throughout the day. Worshippers are welcome to attend the services. These occur at the following times: 08:30 – Holy Communion 10:45 – Mattins and Sermon 11:45 – Sung Eucharist 17:15 – Evensong
This 17th-century historic masterpiece building is situated in the High Street, only 100 metres from Castle Hill. Prince Charles married Camilla Parket Bowles, Duchess of Cornwall at Windsor Guildhall in 2005.
The true meaning of this ancient, awe-inspiring creation has been lost in the mists of time. Was Stonehenge a temple for sun worship, a healing centre, a burial site or perhaps a huge calendar? How did our ancestors manage to carry the mighty stones from so far away and then, using only the most primitive of tools, build this amazing structure? Surrounded by mystery, this prehistoric monument never fails to impress!
Pass by the romantic Pulteney Bridge, modeled on Florence's Ponte Vecchio.
No tour of Bath would be complete without a visit to the famous Roman Baths that gave the city its name. This beautifully preserved bathing complex still flows with water from Britain's only hot spring. Get a glimpse of how the Romans liked to unwind and see for yourself if Bath’s waters really do have healing powers by tasting a sip in the Pump Room, a stunning neo-classical salon.

Our Guide was David, our Driver was Jhon, they make a wonderful team. We were treated kindly by them. David is very fun and knowledgeable and took great strides to assist people, esp those needing additional assistance. He gave us helpful and interesting info as well as suggestions. Jhon was a very good and responsible driver. We absolutely loved this tour! Stonehenge is a fave of mine, personally. But the Baths were totally amazing, as well as that Castle! What can I say? It seems pricy at first, but truly it was worth it. Glad we did it.
Grate tour. The guide shared a lot of interesting stories about the history in England.
Whenever my family visits me in London, I have always booked my tours through Golden tours, but unfortunately, this experience was very disappointing. The bus had a strong and unpleasant smell coming from the toilet throughout the journey, which made the trip extremely uncomfortable. I was also disappointed by the driver’s behaviour. He was quite rude and particularly impolite towards us. I have used Golden Travels regularly and have generally trusted the service, which is why this experience was particularly disappointing.
The stops were very worth seeing, but maybe one at a time; the first stop was Windsor Castle, and it was very cool and we had the most reasonable amount of time to see things and do a little gift shopping and grab something to eat. Stonehenge and the Roman Baths were both very cool, but we didn't have enough time to do more then see the sights before we had to get back on the bus, meaning we didn't have enough time to grab something to eat. And about half the trip was spent driving. Also worth noting, the tour guide wasn't even allowed to guide the tour at any of the locations. So really you're just paying for the bus and for tickets to get into the locations. That being said, our tour guide, Ales, was very cool and knowledgeable, and gave us all sorts of information on our way to each location.
Paulie was a fabulous tour guide. He was informative and fun. Our driver was also great. We were able to get to Windsor castle before there was a line to get in to see the crown jewels so we got in quickly. Because the day had 3 stops, we didn't get to see everything at Windsor Castle, but we did get to see most of it since we got there before other groups. We had plenty of time at Stonehenge and the Roman Baths, but the city of Bath was interesting so we will go back another time to spend more time in the actual town itself.
David with Golden Tours was a great guide. He was very charismatic personally and explained things thoroughly so there were no misunderstandings. Traffic was light and John was a great driver so we weren't rushed!
Pauline and Mario were excellent. The trip to Stonehenge and bath was great. However we were unable to get into the palace and that was part of the tour.
This was an incredible tour. Paulie was an energetic, knowledgeable and funny guide and Mario was an excellent driver. Probably the best tour I’ve had. Would definitely recommend.
