Description

Begin your day by leaving Bath behind and traveling south in search of scenic landscapes and historic towns. The first stop is the medieval city of Salisbury, best known for its cathedral and rich cultural history.

Spend your morning uncovering the historic sites and stories that Salisbury has to offer. There is plenty of time to visit the iconic Salisbury Cathedral, where you can see an original copy of the Magna Carta. Alternatively, explore the Old Town, losing yourself in cobbled streets and the traditional market square.

After your morning in the historic city, head to the coast for some sea air. Your driver-guide will take you along the road to Durdle Door, one of the region's most well-known landmarks. There's time to explore and take pictures of the iconic limestone arch from the cliffs, or you can make your way down to the sandy beach.

From here, it's a short drive to Lulworth Cove, another unique geological wonder. Have a seaside lunch as you enjoy the pebbled beach and secluded bay.

As the day draws to a close, make a final stop in Somerset. Visit the historic city of Glastonbury for a coffee break. Learn about the famous music festival held every summer and hear about the possible burial place of King Arthur. Listen to your driver-guide regale you with a myth or two, before returning to Bath in the early evening.
