Overview

This tour is off-the-beaten-path and covers amazing destinations not yet spoiled by tourists.

You will walk through the ancient woods and sacred stones, visit lost ruins, breathtaking castles and secluded hideaways, discover sunset hill forts and prehistoric caverns. On the first day, your mind will be blown away by the sight of the ancient Roman​ ruins used for esoteric purposes. Later on, you will explore a medieval castle and will stay overnight at the picturesque Marlborough.
The next day your adventure will take you to the oldest stone circle in the world, which is surprisingly not Stonehenge, and you will explore the largest and most mystical artificial mound in Europe. For the bravest explorers, there is a haunted cave on our list,​ followed by a picnic in the enchanting forest.
