The weather was freezing, but I loved every second of it. The Cathedral in Salisbury is amazing, and getting engaged at Stonehenge was just like a dream. :) More

I went with my wife, who was not exactly enthusiastic about taking a road trip from London to see a bunch of standing stones. As others have noted, the advantage of taking the tour is the special access you get to the inner circle in either the early morning or evening (we did evening). However, what makes the tour even...

If you are going to Stonehenge, make it worth it by taking this tour. We were so glad we did. First, Pat is an excellent guide with expert knowledge and great hospitality. Second, while other visitors were required to stay on a pathway that runs along one side of Stonehenge, quite a distance from the stones, Pat took us inside... More

Thanks for the great review fernwehaway21. I'm glad you had a good time and that it is an experience you won't forget. It does get cold up there in winter and this one has been very mild! That's why I always provide a hot drink after the early morning tour and keep plenty of spare warm coats with me. I... More

Let me say first off that Pat does an exceptional job with the tour, he has done extensive research and it really shines in his presentation. In comparison with other tours, he goes the extra mile and makes the stones much more memorable. He knows the most ideal places to take pictures, and is on a good basis with the... More

Pat's enthusiasm, knowledge and friendliness made this tour one of the highlights of our trip to the UK. Our teenaged daughters are generally lukewarm about historical tours, but even they were spellbound as Pat brought Stonehenge to life for us. I highly recommend this tour. More

This is a must do!! Pat Shelley creates an experience rather than giving just a "tour", his knowledge of the history and archaeology of Stonehenge and the surrounding areas is amazing. More

Regina & me came from Hesse, Germany in August 2011 and with our English we really didn't know about having a chance to understand what the Blue Badge Guide will say. But Pat shaked our hands and let make an experience we will never forget: very less technical terms, fact-bound but enthusiastically spoken informations with humerous remarks from time to... More

One of the best tours I have taken in my life. Pat says he talks too much but every word is a morsel of knowledge. More than worth the money. Definitely do the tour in the early AM gaining access to walk among the stones. Breathtaking! Would recommend Pat to my most critical friends. They would be hard put to... More

This isn't just a "tour". Patrick didn't just spout a list of dry boring information. He presented the material in a way that made it fun but was also informative and respectful to the history. And his personal involvement with the ongoing research made sure that we had exposure to the most up to date information. I especially appreciate that... More
