Stonehenge Express: 
The Morning Discovery Tour

Beat the Crowds, See the Stones, and Be Back for Lunch

Experience Britain’s most iconic prehistoric monument without sacrificing your entire day. At Big Ben Coaches, we specialise in "smart travel" getting you to the world’s most famous landmarks ahead of the masses, so you can enjoy the majesty of the Stone Circle the way it was intended: in peace.

The Early Bird Advantage

Why fight the midday traffic and the afternoon crowds? Our tour departs from London at 7:30 AM sharp. By setting off early, we ensure that Big Ben Coaches is among the very first groups to arrive at the Salisbury Plain.

Stepping off the coach at 9:45 AM, you’ll breathe in the crisp morning air and enjoy clear views of the monoliths before the large tour fleets arrive. It’s the ultimate way to capture that perfect, crowd-free photo and experience the true mystery of this UNESCO World Heritage site.

• Admission Included: Forget queuing at the ticket office. Your site entry (a £20+ value) is pre-booked and ready.
• Luxury Transport: Relax in our modern, comfortable coaches with large panoramic windows and expert driver-guides.

• The Full Experience: Your ticket grants you access to the Stone Circle, the award-winning Visitor Centre, the Neolithic Houses, and the world-class exhibition featuring over 250 ancient artefacts.

Wembley Stadium, known today as Wembley Stadium connected by EE through sponsorship, is the home of English football and one of the most iconic sporting venues in the world. Located in Wembley, London, the stadium opened in 2007 on the same site as the original Wembley (1923–2003).

With a capacity of 90,000 seats, it is the largest stadium in the UK and the second largest in Europe. The venue is owned by the Football Association (FA), whose headquarters are based on site through its subsidiary Wembley National Stadium Ltd (WNSL).

Design & Structure

Designed by Foster + Partners and Populous, Wembley is instantly recognisable for its 134-metre high arch. This striking feature not only defines London’s skyline but also carries more than 75% of the stadium’s roof load. The structure includes two retractable roof sections that let in natural light to support pitch growth. Construction was led by Multiplex at a cost of nearly £800 million, making it one of the most ambitious stadium projects in the world.

Sporting Events

Wembley is the stage for the biggest moments in English football. It hosts:

• All England men’s national team home fixtures
• The FA Cup Final and semi-finals
• The FA Community Shield
• Promotion play-offs across multiple league tiers
• The Women’s FA Cup Final and key England women’s national team games

It has also been the venue for some of the most prestigious international competitions, including:

• The UEFA Champions League Finals (2011, 2013, 2024)
• UEFA Euro 2020 (including both semi-finals and the final)
• UEFA Women’s Euro 2022 Final
• Football finals during the London 2012 Olympic Games

  

Beyond Football

Wembley’s calendar extends far beyond the national game. It regularly hosts:

• Rugby League’s Challenge Cup and other finals
• NFL London Games
• Major music concerts featuring global artists
• Temporary home fixtures for clubs, such as Tottenham Hotspur (2017–2019)

Looking ahead, Wembley will also be a host venue for UEFA Euro 2028.
