The Experience
The coach leaves Portland Port and carries you to Stonehenge, one of the world's most recognizable prehistoric monuments. You'll have time to walk around the ancient stone circle at your own pace, using the official audio guide to learn about its scale, precision and the mysteries that still surround it after more than 5,000 years. The visitor centre sits on-site with exhibitions, a café and a gift shop, so you can spend as long as you need exploring before heading back.
This is a shared coach trip with other passengers, not a guided tour. You're traveling with up to 51 others, mostly from cruise ships. The vehicle is air-conditioned, and parking fees are covered. Because entry tickets aren't included, you'll buy them when you arrive at Stonehenge. The audio guide is free to download before you go. The whole outing runs 6 to 8 hours from Portland, which means you can fit it into a port day without rushing.
