You will end your trip in the Medieval city of Salisbury, with a visit to Salisbury Cathedral, a place of worship, welcome and hospitality for over 800 years. Britain’s finest 13th-century cathedral, it inspires awe with its soaring spire, the tallest in the country, its peaceful cloisters, and treasures including the world’s oldest working clock (1386) and the best-preserved original Magna Carta.
More than a masterpiece of medieval architecture, the cathedral has long been a destination for pilgrims and seekers of faith.

In the afternoon and just 10 miles from the city centre, stands Stonehenge a World Heritage Site and one of the world’s most enigmatic sacred monuments. Long associated with ritual and ceremony, its orientation to the rising and setting sun suggests a deep spiritual significance, whether linked to sun worship, an astronomical calendar, or other ancient beliefs, it continues to be a place of wonder and contemplation for visitors from around the globe.
