Visite privée de Stonehenge

Our guide Nicolas Irving (Nick) was excellent; we highly recommend booking with him! He was proactive, thoughtful and clearly had our best experience in mind. He contacted us the day prior, to confirm our plans and advise an earlier departure time in order avoid crowds. Our travel to and from Stonehenge was smooth, and Nick shared helpful and interesting facts and recommendations throughout the journey. He checked in frequently to gauge comfort level and tailored our visit accordingly. The highlight of our experience was a beautiful scenic walk from the visitor center to Stonehenge, recommended and led by Nick. The entire family (my husband and our two teenage sons) absolutely loved it, and will cherish the memory. It is clear Nick has a deep knowledge of and love for this site, which made our experience all the more meaningful. It was worth every penny, and we would absolutely book with Nick again.

Excellent guide. Very insightful and good pace to see Stonehenge thoroughly. Enjoyed being picked up at the airport as we could not check in until the afternoon so this option really worked well for us.

I must have opened 50 browser windows trying to find the right time, itinerary, car, age appropriateness, etc. for a tour. From experience, let me humbly advise: stop searching and book Nick and English Private Tours now with total confidence. Not only was it one the best tours imaginable but all logistics were super easy and flexible. My review is the perspective of a family of 4 from the USA (kids ages 6 and 8) but he’ll sort any customizations needed for your group. Of course, Nick knows everything Stonehenge; I’m sure other guides do too. What set this experience apart was that Nick is clearly uniquely captivated by Stonehenge and by the end, I expect your family, like ours, will be too. We went in expecting to see an ancient unsolved mystery, but Nick’s tour showed us how the broader topography and intricate details actually explain much of Stonehenge, and in doing so he in fact makes it all the more astonishing! Stylistically, he leads the tour with reverence for the broader setting and massive respect for its creators and their accomplishments that’s communicated in a way that lets their story tell itself - one doesn’t need stamp books and programs to be engaged here. My kids loved hearing the “science” of it whereas I left really appreciating its sacredness. For those wondering about kids and logistics. Mine were 6 and 8 and easily engaged the whole time. Nick reached out before the tour to confirm logistics. He picked us up from our home stay in central London in an immaculate, very safe Mercedes van with wifi and was totally accommodating of our tardiness and itinerary requests . He also used the drive to give a little bonus tour of the landmarks and neighborhoods heading out of town and on the way. Pro tip: if Nick asks you if you want to take a special walk during the tour, say yes, and you’ll get an incomparable treat. I seriously never write reviews, but especially now having seen the vibe from group or self guided tours and even other guides, I can’t imagine feeling how we do now about our Stonehenge experience without Nick sharing his passion, insight, and experience with our family. Book confidently. Enjoy your tour!

The tour was absolutely superior. Rather than simply regurgitating facts, Nick brought both detailed subject matter expertise and passion - he was able to bring Stonehenge and it’s history to life for us. If you want an experience that will leave you thinking, this is the one for you,
