Depart from central London by air-conditioned coach and journey west into the scenic county of Wiltshire toward Salisbury Plain, the site of UNESCO-listed Stonehenge.
As you travel, listen as your guide shares fascinating facts about this prehistoric monument: a 4,500-year-old stone circle that many scholars believe was built as a temple aligned to the movements of the sun.
On arrival, head inside the site and stroll around the monument’s perimeter as you consider how the gigantic stones were transported here and then raised into place. After posing for photos in front of the stones, explore the state-of-the-art visitor center to discover its archaeological displays and audio-visual walkthroughs.
Then, continue your journey to the 18th-century spa city of Bath. Famous for its natural hot springs that were enjoyed by the Romans, as well as for its Georgian architecture and associations with the 18th-century novelist, Jane Austen, this lovely city is one of England’s greatest treasures.
During your journey, learn about Bath’s history, and when you arrive, take an introductory walking tour. Put on your audio headset and listen to your guide’s crystal-clear commentary as you admire the beautiful streets and honey-colored Georgian buildings, including the sweeping Royal Crescent and Pulteney Bridge.
Afterward, upgrade your ticket to include a visit to the Roman Baths, or simply spend the remainder of the afternoon at your leisure. Perhaps visit the Jane Austen Visitor Centre (own expense), the small museum that showcases Jane’s work and times in the city. Learn about life in Bath during Regency times, and how it influenced Jane’s stories from the exhibits and in-costume guides. When the time comes, reconvene with your guide and finish your trip with drop-off back at your original departure point.

Roman was an excellent guide. She was super friendly and knowledgeable. I could listen to hear her all day. Merrick was a very good driver too.

This is a well worth your time and money. You are given enough time to visit Stonehenge and Bath. James, the tour guide was very knowledgeable of both stops and the trip there. The Roman Baths are interesting if you want to spend the extra money. If not, Bath has many interesting areas to visit. The company makes it easy to find and the coach was very relaxing.

If you want a great guide, choose, Mel! He is funny, a local, with insider knowledge of all the go to places in London & vast knowledge of the sites in Bath, as he grew up there. We travelled from Central London to Stonehenge in the Am and then Bath/Roman Bathes in the afternoon. Both tours were wonderful. The coach/bus we took had WiFi on board and phone charging stations in front of every seat. The Roman Baths are an archeological wonder with an interesting history. The town of Bath is filled with shops, good food and architecture. There are multiple locations if you’re a fan of the Netflix series Bridgerton where they filmed familiar scenes. Overall, our family would give this Evan Evans tour, 5 stars. Our son liked Mel’s signature style of wearing his hat backwards and soon adapted by putting his hat on backwards too! Great guide, bus driver, and tour pace. Wear your walking shoes, bring your camera & buckle in for an amazing trip!
Our last stop will be a scenic tour of the historic city of Bath, originally built as a place of well-being and relaxation by the Romans over 2,000 years ago. Home to the country’s only natural thermal hot springs, Bath is a delightful city where the ancient world is intertwined with threads of medieval and more recent Georgian history. Our scenic drive of Bath provides an excellent introduction to the major sights of this beautiful city, including Pulteney Bridge, The Assembly Rooms and The Royal Crescent.
Afterwards, the time is yours to explore this beautiful city at your own pace. Wander its cobbled streets and explore the markets, or choose to visit the famous Roman Baths* and learn all about their history.
The Royal Crescent is a row of 30 terraced houses laid out in a sweeping crescent in the city of Bath, England.
The Roman Baths complex is a site of historical interest in the English city of Bath. It is a well-preserved Roman site once used for public bathing.
The Roman Baths themselves are below the modern street level. There are four main features: the Sacred Spring, the Roman Temple, the Roman Bath House and the museum, holding finds from Roman Bath. The buildings above street level date from the 19th century.
The Baths are a major tourist attraction and, together with the Grand Pump Room, receive more than one million visitors a year. Visitors can tour the baths and museum but cannot enter the water.
