Embark on a captivating 2-day journey through mystical landscapes and historical wonders in our classic London Black Cab!

Our adventure begins in Central London, weaving through charming suburbs of leafy Chiswick before reaching Twickenham, the home of international rugby. We'll glimpse a pub where Elton John made one of his first professional appearances and continue through the Surrey Heath where we'll delve into the world of H.G. Wells' "The War of the Worlds" and the movie "Gladiator".

Marker posts in the ground.

Our journey of myth and magic awaits as we join the legendary A303, the Highway to the Sun, a road steeped in legend. We pass through the ancient town of Amesbury, steeped in Arthurian legend before pausing at Durrington Walls, a colossal earthen ring within once inhabited by thousands of neolithic inhabitants. Woodhenge, once marked by towering wooden posts, a feature we will explore with its relationship to Stonehenge.

Stonehenge, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is next. We'll explore its fascinating history, dating back to the mid-1100s when Robert Wace's writings sparked public interest. The site remains shrouded in mystery, with its purpose and origins yet to be fully understood. We'll delve into compelling theories while acknowledging its role as a central piece in a vast, prehistoric landscape.

Our westward journey continues through the charming coaching towns of Shrewton and Chitterne. Keep your eyes peeled for tanks as we cross Ministry of Defence land! We'll pass by iron age fortresses such as Cley Hill before reaching the skirting the market town of Warminster, a place where UFO sightings abound!

The tower atop the hill with blue sky.

As we enter Somerset, the "land of the summer people," we'll uncover the truth behind this intriguing legend. A glimpse of Glastonbury Tor, a mythical hub in King Arthur's tales, awaits (weather permitting) as we cross the ancient Roman road of Watling Street.

Are you up for the challenge of hiking up Glastonbury Tor for some great views across the Somerset levels? Find out about the fairy king and his encounter with a local saint.

Next, we journey to the mystical Chalice Well, where legend claims Joseph of Arimathea hid the Holy Grail. Sample the well's mineral-rich waters, said to possess restorative properties. A short drive away lies Glastonbury Abbey, where King Arthur's remains were supposedly exhumed and reburied. We'll delve into the captivating history of this sacred site.

Time for lunch. How about the best fish and chip restaurant in the country?

After lunch be prepared to be awestruck by Wells Cathedral, a stunning example of Gothic architecture. The sea of steps is a must see, as are the scissor arches and the medieval clock with jousting knights.

Gothic style exterior and statues to foreground.

A scenic drive through Cheddar Gorge precedes our overnight stay in the delightful city of Bath. Here, you'll have the option to indulge in the Thermal Bath Spa experience. The next day, delve into Roman history at the Roman Baths museum, followed by a panoramic tour showcasing Bath's iconic landmarks, including Sally Lunn's restaurant, the Circus, Assembly Rooms, and the Royal Crescent.

Our adventure continues in the enchanting village of Lacock. A walking tour reveals hidden gems such as the tithe barn, the Chamberlain's house, weaver's cottages, St. Cyriac's church, and the filming location for Harry Potter scenes at Lacock Abbey.

Next, we'll pass through charming villages like Sandy Lane with its thatched cottages, marvel at the White Horse of Cherhill, and pay respects at the Lansdowne memorial and Silbury Hill.

The standing stones forming an arc.

A short drive leads us to Avebury Stone Circle, the world's largest prehistoric stone circle. Unlike Stonehenge, here you can get right up to the stones and learn about their construction and purpose from your guide. We'll even attempt to feel the stones' energy using dowsing rods! Explore the charming medieval church and browse for unique souvenirs at the Henge Shop.

Our journey concludes with a scenic drive along an old coaching road, taking us through historic market towns such as Marlborough, which boasts the widest street in England, and Hungerford, the last place in England to celebrate the Hocktide ceremony.

Finally, we reach Windsor Castle, the world's largest occupied castle. Witness the grandeur of the Long Walk, a nearly 2.5-mile avenue leading to the castle, before concluding our journey through Runnymede, the site where the Magna Carta was signed, a document that changed the course of history.

Our customers say...
"That man is a GEM – don't let him go away. During our week long stay we spent time with a handful of guides – London Walks, three EF guides, a Blue Badge and several others, but I will state with utmost certainty that not one of them was as genuinely interested and willing to make our day perfect as Chris. He set us at ease straight away with his warmth and down-to-earth personality and proceeded to entertain and enthral us with tales and trivia the whole day through. He asked just enough questions to get an idea of our interests and then managed to please everyone. What a perfect way for us to spend our last day in England...thank you for assigning him to our group...please, please give Chris a gigantic thank-you from us all."
