OUR GUIDE TO DAY TRIPS & EXCURSIONS FROM LONDON

Venture beyond bustling London to experience the irresistible charm of the English countryside. The great thing about taking day trips from the city is that most give you the opportunity to visit several famous sites in a single day!

Soak in stunning scenery on a coach ride through rural England before reaching world famous Stonehenge. Learn about the mysterious origins of this prehistoric monument as you circle around the grounds on a guided audio tour. Most visits to Stonehenge are combined with a trip to the Georgian spa town of Bath. Considered one of England’s prettiest towns, photogenic Bath is famous for its Roman Baths, spectacular abbey and literary links to Jane Austen.

If it’s fairytale castles you’re after, then you’ve come to the right place! Windsor Castle, an active royal residence, is located just outside London. Walk the halls and state rooms Her Majesty the Queen calls home, witness the famous changing of the guard and stroll through the castle’s elegant gardens. A little further from London, Leeds Castle is another magnificent historic residence popular with visitors. Rising up from the water and guarded by beautiful black swans, day trips to the postcard-perfect castle typically also stop at the 1,000-year-old Canterbury Cathedral and the White Cliffs of Dover.

With its striking towers and turrets, historic Warwick Castle transports you back to a time of armor clad knights and damsels in distress. Witness medieval battle re-enactments, jousting tournaments and archery demonstrations at this kid-friendly castle on a combined day trip that also includes stops at Stratford-Upon-Avon and Oxford University.

The charming market town of Stratford-Upon-Avon is best known as the birthplace of William Shakespeare. Here you can trace the footsteps of the famous playwright from his childhood home in the center of town to the idyllic 15th-century thatched roof cottage of his wife Anne Hathaway. An hour away by coach, Oxford University is every bit as regal and magnificent as you’d expect. Tour the university’s famous colleges, including several filming locations featured in the Harry Potter films, try your hand at rowing down Oxford’s beautiful canal or simply enjoy the scenery.
