Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Pass By: Salisbury Market Place, Blue Boar Row, Salisbury SP1 1TP England

Salisbury has been an important provincial city for more than a thousand years. Its streets form an architectural timeline ranging from medieval walls and half-timbered Tudor townhouses, to Georgian mansions, Victorian villas, and of course a majestic cathedral topped by the tallest spire in England. Welcome to Salisbury!

Stop At: Salisbury Cathedral and Magna Carta, 6 The Close, Salisbury SP1 2EF England

The Salisbury Cathedral is the finest 13th century cathedral in Britain. It is an international symbol of Christianity, an important heritage attraction, and a beautiful and historic building. It is an active place of worship that welcomes half a million people from all over the world annually. For me, this is one of the best Cathedrals of the world!

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Stonehenge, Amesbury SP4 7DE England

The jewel of English Heritage: Stonehenge has been a source of fascination for thousands of years. Many people, both past and present, have devoted their lives attempting to unravel the mysteries of this extraordinary place. This is why we are all here today… right? Today we will try to find some answers about the cremation cemetery, and how the sarsen stones were added and aligned to mark the mid-summer (June 21 @ 16:54) and mid-winter (December 22 @ 04:19) solstices. Hear the story from a scientist!

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Parade Gardens, Orange Grove, Bath BA1 1EE England

Parade Gardens is one of the best examples of a Victorian Public Garden. The gardens overlook the Pulteney Bridge and Pulteney Weir on the banks of the Avon River. The flower bedding screens are some of the best in Britain. But, hang on! Bath is routinely banned from the "Britain in Bloom" Contest. Why? Keep following me, please :)

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Bath Abbey, Bath BA1 1LT England

No visit to Bath would be complete without at least a short insight into the beautiful Bath Abbey. A Church from wool? It sounds very "Cotswolds style" Bath Abbey is the last medieval Church built in Britain 500 years ago. It's a brand new one :) Also lets hear why people call the Abbey as "The lantern of the West". Please, follow me!

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: The Roman Baths, Abbey Church Yard, Bath BA1 1LZ England

Here is the reason to be in this lovely town. Bath is famous for its hot springs. It was a popular spa town for the ancient Romans. The terrace was completed in 1897 and it's the date the Roman Baths reopened to the public but the history of Bath goes back to 860 BC when the Celtic King Bladud discovered the curative effect of the mud & spa. The story begins then.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Fudge Kitchen, 10 Abbey Churchyard, Bath BA1 1LY England

It is time to sample the regional and fresh tastes of Bath. You will find delicious fudge consisting of butter, milk and sugar, which is now considered a traditionally British recipe. The best of all is prepared right before your eyes. Do you want to give it a try? It is not the same that you have in the States, and I am sure you will enjoy the difference!

Duration: 5 minutes

Pass By: Theatre Royal Bath, Sawclose, Bath BA1 1EY England

The impressive Royal Theater, which was built in 1805, is labeled as one of Bath's West End's most well-preserved Georgian theater architecture. The first performance was Shakespeare's Richard III and today it hosts London's favorite musicals and shows for art lovers and visitors. I would be pleased to show you this building today!

Stop At: The Circus, At the convergence of Brock, Bennett, and Gay Streets, Bath England

The three entrance Circus is a typical Georgian Square by architect John Wood the Elder, built between the years of 1754 and 1768. The Jane Austen Centre is just a walking distance away. I houses a permanent exhibition of film costumes and books that tell the story of the author's time in Bath.

Duration: 5 minutes

Stop At: Royal Crescent, Royal Cresent, Bath BA1 1EE England

Most of the buildings in Bath, from 18th Century local architects, were totally inspired by the Italian style. The Royal Crescent goes back to 1770's and is considered the very first Georgian condos. There is an optical illusion in here that is related to the posh address, which is "Number one, Royal Crescent". You will be surprised when I reveal it.

Duration: 10 minutes
