Itinerary
We'll start the day with a relaxed drive through the quintessential English countryside. As the huge stone circle appears on the horizon, you will wonder; Was it an astronomical calendar, a burial ground, a place of healing or worship? Marvel at the shear size of the Sarcen stones, some weighing over 30 tonnes and the precision with which they are arranged.
After enjoying the time to wander around the mysterious monoliths of Stonehenge, you will have the option of stopping for a classic English pub lunch before making your way to Medieval Salisbury, where your driver will take you to Salisbury Cathedral, with it's incredible hand carved columns, the tallest spire in Britain and it's best preserved copy of the historic Magna Carta.
When arriving back in the vacinity of the cruise ship, you will have the chance of a slow cruise through Weymouth's Seafront and its harbour, with lifting Victorian bridge. Weymouth was one of the first seaside resorts in the UK, made famous and trendy by King George III for his habit of visiting for sea bathing and enjoyment of the scenic area. Today the area is a popular tourist resort, with a working harbour full of yachts and fishing vessels.
Our last stop on the tour is at the top of Portland to get one of the best coastal views of the Jurassic Coast. With a friendly driver, full of local secrets and historical information and tales, this private tour encapsulates the best of the regional history, culture and scenery. You will return to your ship full of fascinating stories from one of England's most characteristic regions.

About Weymouth
Weymouth is a Georgian seaside resort in Dorset, with a curving sandy bay, a working harbour and the Jurassic Coast on its doorstep.
George III holidayed at Weymouth from the 1780s, and the seafront still has Georgian terraces behind a wide esplanade, with a statue of the king and a Victorian jubilee clock. A broad sandy beach curves round Weymouth Bay, and the inner harbour, full of fishing boats and yachts, is lined with pubs and old warehouses. Nothe Fort, a Victorian fort on the headland, looks over the harbour mouth.
