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.

Westminster, London

Westminster lies at the heart of Central London, stretching from the River Thames to Oxford Street. It is home to many of Britain’s most famous landmarks, including the Palace of Westminster, Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Westminster Cathedral, Trafalgar Square, and the lively West End theatre district.

The area’s history dates back over a thousand years. Westminster Abbey rose to prominence in the 11th century under Edward the Confessor, while the Palace of Westminster has served as the centre of government since the 13th century. Today, the name Westminster is often used as shorthand for the UK Parliament itself.

Whether you’re discovering royal palaces, exploring historic churches, or enjoying a night out in the West End, travelling is simple with Big Ben Coaches. We provide trusted coach hire and group transport to Westminster — comfortable, reliable, and ideal for schools, tour groups, or private visits.
