very enjoyable trip to... - very enjoyable trip to Stonehenge.
Snack pack was an essential element of the trip since there would not be enough time to eat at the cafe. Our driver Armando was knowledgeable and entertaining. Thank you for a great trip!

Short-term trip to Stonehenge - Very well organized, nice driver, his name was Nathan.
He drove very carefully and explained a few things and gave tips along the way.
The bus was clean and had a toilet.
Everything was great.
The journey takes about 2 hours one way.

Amazing attraction with a top-notch driver - I consider visiting Stonehenge to be something you have to do at least once in your life. Once you arrive at the visitor center, I recommend walking from there to the ruins, since the landscape is beautiful, and you will be very satisfied when you arrive. .
As for Golden Tours, after researching it, we considered it was a better option to use their service than to go on our own, due to the time and even the cost, it is a very good value for money. When we booked the tour it was indicated that it did not include food, but when the day came we were surprised, it is a very complete package, suitable for vegetarians, which at least left us satisfied after the long walk.
A special mention of the experience goes to ARMANDO, who was the tour driver, a very friendly, fun person, as well as very professional throughout the transfer, during the transfer in the city of London he told us a little about the city, tips and including jokes that made the trip much better.

Clear, Concise and Enjoyable Journey to Stonehenge - This is what the tour was about in pros and cons to help you decide if it’s right for you:
Pros
- wonderful bus with updated screens and comfortable seats and even a toilet
- snack pack including juice, sandwich, apple and biscuits
- plenty of time at Stonehenge to explore
- clear directions of when to be back on the bus
- bus driver was friendly and kind
Cons
- Expect trafffic. We were dropped off at Gloucester instead of our original spot. Don’t think of overbooking yourself after this tour
- No tour guide and no audio guide - you are on your own
- You need to make a plan and figure out the shuttle to the stones and divide your time between that and the gift shop and of course the bathrooms

All Around Great Experience - Our trip to Stonehenge was great except for one minor flaw . The video display on our side of the bus didn’t work, but our Driver Dan more than made up for it. He kept us entertained with interesting facts not only about Stonehenge but London as well. He gave us a mini tour as we drove out of London. Stonehenge was amazing to see in person. I really enjoyed the snack pak on the bus.

Long time on the bus for a short stop. - We spent a long time (2.5 hours there) on the bus and had 1 hour at the site. Then a 2.5 hour drive back -really not worth it unless you add a stop at Bath or one of the other add-on combinations.
