So I usually prefer to just get a rental car and drive to certain mustsee locations myself, but in the case of Stonehenge, Bath & Windsor Castle it's absolutely worth it to take a bus tour if you're stationed in London.

BOOK THE TOUR: https://www.viator.com/tours/London/S...


STONEHENGE:

Unesco world heritage site

Salisbury Plain, man made stones

Built over 5,000 years ago, it's reasons are mostly a mystery which is what makes it so cool

Took over 1,000 years to build

No one knows how it was built, the stones are HUGE and super heavy

You literally just walk up and see the stones, there's not much else to do

Considering how far it is from London (23 hours) and you have to drive on the left side of the road, it's nice to have the bus so it doesn't waste the whole day



BATH:

England was at one point a part of the Roman Empire for almost 400 years

Bath is also a UNESCO world heritage site

Known as one of the most beautiful cities in England, it feels like you are walking through the ancient streets of the Roman empire

Named bath after these stillstanding Roman built public baths

City was built on natural hot springs which is why the romans built a bath here

You can't bathe here unlike Japanese baths, but it's seriously so cool to get an in depth tour of what the Roman occupied England used to look like.

They have videos recreating what it would have looked like


WINDSOR:

This is where the Royal Family actually lives. Buckingham palace is technically where they work (Queen comes here on the weekend)

Windsor is where a lot of famous actors live like Michael Cain (Alfred from Batman movies), Johnny Depp, Nick Cage

Windsor is the largest occupied castle in the world over 900 years in operation

Over 40 British Monarchs have lived here
