Lois Ronberg says:
"Think of Windsor in England and the beautiful, old Windsor Castle comes first to mind but there are several reasons why you should include this in your next United Kingdom holiday. After visiting the castle, which is nearly 1000 years old and a favourite residence of Queen Elizabeth II, you should include a stroll in Windsor Great Park as some of its 4800 acres are open to the public and be sure to take the family out to Legoland. I enthusiastically recommend Windsor Castle for its historical role, the beautiful St Georges Chapel where 10 monarchs are buried, also because it is a ‘’lived in’‘ castle which adds to the appeal. My favourite memory is the surprisingly huge Queen Mary’s Dolls House which I stood in a queue of around 50 people (they only let a few in at a time as space is limited inside) and it was so worth the wait. Even though it is so old it actually has a lighting system so as you look into the tiny rooms there is a little light shining. A miniature worth seeing. I was amazed at the olde-look to the new furniture which had to be re-created after the fire some years ago. You really could not tell that pieces are not the ancient originals. I’m always amused at the tale of the woman from America who stood in the queue and complained about the massive jets going over the palace. She said ‘’ why do you think they built this beautiful castle on the flight path into Heathrow?’‘ Love it! The township of Windsor is a good stroll around old shops, little side streets and of course nearby is Eton College where the country’s elite are schooled. Look out for the horse-drawn carriage rides as they will take you back in time when in this old, historic English town. Windsor is the Queen’s favourite and I think keen locals and visitors to Britain from all over the world agree with her. "

London to Stonehenge Shuttle Bus & Independent Day Trip
If you'd like to visit Stonehenge without a guide, pre-book now for a fast, hassle-free independent day trip. It's the best way to arrange a do-it-yourself tour if you have limited time. Collect your Stonehenge entrance tickets (included in the tour price!) and free audio-guide before exploring at your own pace. Great value for money.

Stonehenge stands alone in the vast empty tract of Salisbury plain. Its origins date back nearly 5,000 years and it has been home to pagan religion, spiritual worship and public debate ever since. What was this vast collection of stones intended for? Was Stonehenge an observatory of the moon, a temple to the sun, or an elaborate cemetery? Who were the people who carried and carved these 40 ton rocks? Prepare to be amazed as you walk around its perimeter and ponder this mysterious feat of ancient engineering.
Starting from $45.11 per person
