Itinerario
Arrivo anticipato a Stonehenge per garantire la migliore esperienza senza la folla. I biglietti d'ingresso per Stonehenge sono riservati e ritirati dalla tua guida Mad Max per evitare code e ritardi. Un sacco di tempo per visitare l'ampio centro informazioni e le meravigliose esposizioni. C'è anche una caffetteria per rinfreschi. Assicurati di avere una carta di debito o di credito il giorno del tour per pagare il tuo biglietto per Stonehenge.
Cammina liberamente tra queste magnifiche pietre. Immergiti nell'atmosfera e nel fascino magico di questo antico sito. Metti alla prova la rabdomanzia. È ora di passeggiare per questo grazioso villaggio con il suo pub di paglia del 17 ° secolo.
Photo stop. Questo è il più grande oggetto creato dall'uomo nell'Europa preistorica. Fu costruito 4800 anni fa e impiegò più tempo a costruirsi di Stonehenge. Il suo scopo è ancora uno dei grandi misteri irrisolti.
Photo Stop. Il cavallo bianco Cherhill ha quasi 300 anni. Questo bellissimo cavallo bianco è uno dei 13 nel Wiltshire. Scolpiti dalle colline di gesso appaiono drammatici contro il ricco paesaggio verde. Questi sono i più visti e più fotogenici se visti a distanza.
Il villaggio Lacock National Trust è la nostra location per il pranzo. Questo è un villaggio incontaminato del National Trust che appare come intrappolato nel tempo. Non c'è stata nessuna costruzione importante qui negli ultimi 200 anni. Presente in molti film e drammi d'epoca tra cui Harry Potter, Orgoglio e pregiudizio, Larkrise to Candleford e Downton Abbey per citarne alcuni. C'è anche un'abbazia, uno dei pochi monasteri Tudor rimasti che divenne la casa di William Fox Talbot, un importante pioniere della fotografia. L'ingresso non è incluso nel prezzo del tour e la visita è facoltativa. L’Abbazia è aperta dalla primavera all’autunno e maggiori dettagli sono disponibili sul sito del National Trust.
Un idilliaco villaggio del Cotswold adagiato in una valle boscosa. Votato come il villaggio più carino d'Inghilterra. Questa è stata una location per film e film drammatici storici; Stardust, Warhorse e Poirot così come l'originale Dr Dolittle. È ora di girovagare per le strade acciottolate e ammirare la vista dalla croce del mercato medievale. Rilassati vicino al ruscello di fronte ai cottage del tessitore di cartoline illustrate. Scopri l'orologio medievale nella chiesa di St Andrews e la tomba del XIII secolo di Sir Walter de Dunstanville.

Bill showed us a great time! He was funny, thoughtful, and offered good tips for seeing more in the area. Our trip was during record breaking heat, and Bill rearranged the day so we could be strategic about shade and sun exposure. The air conditioning in the van was a life saver. I highly recommend this tour. I was surprised at how much we loved Avebury and joining the grazing sheep while we took in the stones and shade. You can plan a picnic but you can't plan the weather : )
The Cotswolds was lovely but Stonehenge was a disaster— my husband was robbed! We were not warned that this was such an unsafe place by the tour company. Mad Max tours refused to take responsibility and would not refund our money. Only $19 which was insulting and only a fraction of the price that we both paid. They do not care about their customers and will not take ownership of the situation. A Travel attorney I talked to told me that the tour guide should have warned us that this was a very unsafe environment. After telling numerous people of our experience on this tour, we have now discovered that thefts occur at Stonehedge all the time! Mad Max tours does not care about their customer’s safety nor are they interested in compensating for a situation that was caused by their omission of information.
We're sorry to read about what happened during your visit to Stonehenge. We understand that this was frustrating & disappointing and that it affected your enjoyment of the day. To clarify a couple of things: the item went missing during free time at Stonehenge, which is a public attraction operated independently from us, and not while travelling with us or whilst with your Driver-Guide. We have no way of knowing exactly what happened to the item — whether it was lost, misplaced, dropped, or taken by a third party — and so it would not be appropriate for us to speculate. As with any public attraction, visitors remain responsible for their personal belongings. We would also respectfully disagree with the suggestion that Stonehenge is unsafe. It is one of the most visited and well-managed heritage sites in the country. While incidents involving personal property can unfortunately occur anywhere members of the public gather, that does not make the site itself unsafe. We're disappointed that this incident overshadowed what sounds like an otherwise enjoyable day in the Cotswolds, and we wish you both all the best. Max
The tour of Cotswold went lovely however when we got to Stonehenge, we were not warned that this was an extremely unsafe place and my husband was robbed. Within 30 minutes of his wallet being taken thousands of dollars was charged to our accounts. I spoke with a Travel attorney who told me that this was a frequent occurrence and we should’ve been warned that Stonehenge was a very unsafe place and to watch out— we were not given any warning. I am putting this information here because there is no way to reach anyone at Viator to make a formal complaint and request a refund; however, after having this experience, we would never ever go to Stonehenge or recommend anyone else going.
Great tour. We had an amazing time. Tour guide Andy was friendly and knowledgeable and funny and created an atmosphere of enjoyment for everyone on the tour. I would recommend this tour to anyone.
Gerry was amazing. The tour was informative, interesting and the right pace for all ages! I will book again!
Love the tour! Our guide, Bill, was excellent, he provided us with great information as we drove a long to our stops! It was a great day!
Where to begin? This was my favorite tour in England, and I've been here many times in about 30 years. Our tour guide, Bill, was knowledgeable, funny, an amazing driver, kind, and just an all-around pleasure. Each stop on our way from Bath to Stonehenge, through the Cotswolds, was like something from a storybook, even in a heavy drizzle. There were so many unexpected and beautiful sites on the road and in each town, and Bill did a great job pointing them out. Stonehenge was awe-inspiring. 5,000+ years of history. There's no way we would have seen and experienced all these places on our own! Roads are very tricky and Bill made it look easy. Highly recommended!
My family and I had a wonderful experience with Mad Max Tours. Our tour guide, Andy, was absolutely fantastic! He was funny, entertaining, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. He did an amazing job bringing the history and stories behind each location to life. Andy made sure we saw everything included on the tour and even surprised us with a few extra stops and details that made the experience even more special. The tour was well organized, comfortable, and enjoyable from start to finish. I was traveling with a protective walking boot, and I was worried it might limit what I could experience, but Andy’s care and the pace of the tour allowed me to enjoy every part of the day without feeling left out. This was a perfect mix of history, beautiful sights, and great storytelling. I highly recommend Mad Max Tours, and if you’re lucky enough to get Andy as your guide, you’re in for a memorable experience!
What a great day! Despite the rain, our guide, Bill, made the sightseeing fun and light. He was very knowledgeable about the gorgeous Cotswold area. Thank you!
I had to cancel two tours with Mad Max Tours — the Cotswolds tour and the Cotswolds and Stonehenge tour — due to a serious medical issue that forced me to cancel my entire planned trip to the UK. John handled my cancellation with remarkable efficiency and kindness, processing refunds for both bookings promptly and without any complications, along with genuine warm wishes for my recovery. Both tours were something I was enormously looking forward to, and the gracious way in which my cancellation was handled has only made me more eager to join Mad Max Tours when I am able to return to the UK. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
