How far is Stonehenge from London?
About 90 miles west of central London, on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire. By car that is about two hours each way on a weekday morning, a little less from Heathrow.
Your chauffeur drives you to the Stonehenge visitor centre, where you show your tickets. From there a free visitor shuttle runs every few minutes to the stones, a ride of 5 to 10 minutes.
The car waits in the visitor car park the whole time, so coats, bags and a change of shoes for wet grass stay in the boot.
Your six hours, hour by hour
The timing for an 8:00am pickup; a later pickup moves every line by the same amount.
- 08:00 Pickup at your London hotel; the time is yours to choose between 8:00am and 12:00 noon.
- 10:00 Arrive at the Stonehenge visitor centre; scan your ticket and take the shuttle to the stones.
- 10:15 About 1 hour 15 minutes on the path around the stone circle.
- 11:30 The exhibition and the Neolithic houses beside the visitor centre, then the café or the shop.
- 12:00 Back in the car; the driver has waited in the visitor car park.
- 14:00 Back at your London hotel.
In winter, an 8:00am or 9:00am pickup leaves plenty of time before last entry.
Stonehenge tickets and opening times
Book the tickets yourself on the official site before the day. We drive; English Heritage sells the entry.
- Opening hours in November 9:30am to 5pm every day; hours are longer in summer and the site closes on 25 December.
- Last entry two hours before closing time.
- Ticket prices booked online by midnight the day before, from about £25 for an adult, £12 for a child aged 5 to 17 and £62 for a family ticket covering two adults and up to three children.
- Valid all day the ticket is for one date, not a time slot, so you can arrive any time up to last entry.

Can you go inside the stone circle?
Yes, on a Stone Circle Experience: a separate English Heritage ticket for a small group, at sunrise or in the evening outside normal opening hours.
- Why a private car helps sessions start before the site opens or after it closes. Your driver collects you early or brings you back late and waits for the session.
- Booking sessions are limited and sell out early; book them on the English Heritage website first, then book the car for that date.
- Timing for a sunrise session you leave central London about two and a half hours before it starts. For a pickup outside the 8:00am to noon window, write the time you need in the notes when you book.
Can we add a stop on the way?
Yes. Add the extra hours when you book and tell the driver where you want to stop.
- Salisbury about 9 miles from Stonehenge: the cathedral with the tallest spire in Britain and one of the four 1215 Magna Carta copies; allow one to two hours.
- Avebury a larger stone circle with a village inside it, about 25 miles north; you can walk among these stones every day.
- Lacock a National Trust village used as a film location, about 30 minutes from Avebury.
- Bath as well Bath is a separate day: see the Stonehenge and Bath day trip, about ten hours from £620 per car.
Is it easy for families, older guests and wheelchair users?
Mostly yes. The car parks at the visitor centre, and the longest walk is from the shuttle stop to the stones.
- Children child seats are fitted in the car free on request; tell us the ages when you book.
- Wheelchair users the visitor shuttle is accessible, and a short path leads from its stop to the stones; English Heritage lends a limited number of manual wheelchairs at the visitor centre.
- Weather Salisbury Plain is open and windy; warm layers and waterproof shoes help in any season, and they can wait in the boot until you need them.

How long is a private Stonehenge tour from London?
About six hours door to door: about two hours’ drive each way and two hours at the stones, the visitor centre and the exhibition.
How much is a private Stonehenge tour from London?
From £520 per car, return, in a Mercedes E‑Class for up to three passengers, or £610 in a V‑Class for up to seven.
Are Stonehenge tickets included?
No. You book them yourself on the English Heritage website before the day; the ticket is valid all day, up to last entry.
Is two hours enough at Stonehenge?
For most visitors, yes: it covers the shuttle, the path around the circle, the exhibition and the Neolithic houses without rushing. Families with young children often need less.
What time should we leave London in winter?
By 12:00 noon at the latest, because last entry is two hours before closing (3pm in November). An 8:00am or 9:00am pickup gets you back before dark.
Can we go inside the stone circle?
Only on a Stone Circle Experience, a separate English Heritage ticket at sunrise or in the evening. Book the session first, then the car; the driver waits until it ends.
Can we add Salisbury or Bath to the day?
Salisbury, Avebury or Lacock can be added with extra hours. Bath is a separate, longer trip: the Stonehenge and Bath day trip.
Do you provide child seats, and is it suitable for wheelchair users?
Yes, child seats are free; give the ages when you book. For wheelchair users the visitor shuttle to the stones is accessible.
Can you collect us from Heathrow?
Yes. Choose Heathrow or another London airport as the pickup when you book; the airport charge is shown in the price before you pay. Your bags stay in the boot all day, which suits an arrival day or a last day before a flight.
Can I cancel, and how do I pay?
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before pickup: a card payment is refunded in full, and inside 24 hours the fare is charged. Pay by card in the booking form, or choose cash and pay the driver in pounds sterling on the day.
One price for the whole car, London to Stonehenge and back.
