Great guide and experience! - Our guide, Steve, explained what we were viewing on our way out of town. We did pay 6 Eu. for a guide, which was downloaded as this is a self guided tour. We had plenty of time to go around the circle twice, leisurely and also go into the gift store and the cafe. We enjoyed our drive into the countryside.

Positive experience - We had a great experience on this trip to Stonehenge. The meeting point had numbered signs similar to typical stops. Our driver, Jim, was great. He was funny and gave us clear instructions once we got there. If we had all day I would have definitely chosen the all day tour of the area. I would recommend this Tour company. Tip: There is a convenience store on the corner that sells boxed sandwiches, etc. (Facing the bus, go right. Walk to the corner.)

Stonehenge tour with Jim - Comfortable bus, and our driver/guide Jim was awesome! He was great at giving us a mini history lesson on the bus, something other golden tour drivers haven’t done. Very entertaining during the long ride. Thanks for the fun day!

1/2 Day Stonehenge Tour - This was an incredible bucket list experience for my husband and I. Here is a summary of the pros and cons. PROS: * Our driver Armando was great. He gave us some good humored "history" on some of the more notable places we drove past on our way out of the city, but gave us some quiet time once we hit the main roadway. * The bus came equipped with a USB port, so bring a cable to charge your device. * They offered a boxed lunch when we boarded the bus, which was a surprise. * The tour company provided rain ponchos (which was nice and unexpected) * Bus was equipped with a toilet, but is really more for "light" use, as pointed out by Armando. * You have 2 hours to explore the site once you arrive. It is a 30 min walk from the bus parking to the stones, so we decided to take the 5 min shuttle there and back so we could explore the other areas, and still make it back to the bus in time. CONS: * The bus was not well maintained. * The seats are pretty tight. I'm not a large person (5'4 /130 lbs) and I felt cramped. * Seats were broken - the seat in front of my husband was broken. If the guy in the seat in front of him leaned back, it made the seat recline all the way back and the tray table was practically in my husband's stomach. * The seat back on the seat in front of me was broken, so the plastic covering was knocking into my shins. * The pick up point is near Buckingham Palace, but they drop you off 25 mins further out. You either have to walk back, take the tube or pay for a cab. I don't understand the logic of paying for "roundtrip" transportation if you are not dropped off at the same location (or neighborhood) where you were picked up. PRO TIP: * They do not allow hot food or beverages on the bus, so consume both before boarding. * We went in late April, so the weather was still quite cool 47° F in London. It was much cooler (and windy) at Stonehenge, so dress appropriately and wear a hooded jacket or bring a hat in case it rains (which it did when we arrived). Umbrellas are useless in the wind. * Download the audio tour BEFORE you go. You will waste time downloading it at the visitor center. Also, everyone is trying to download on the WIFI, so guaranteed to be a slow download. All things considered, it was a great experience and I'm glad we did it!!
