Winchester
The 11th century cathedral, the Great Hall and King Arthur’s Round Table. Home of good food, birthplace of cricket, resting place of author Jane Austen and inspiration to the many craft-makers and artists who live there, Winchester is truly a destination for all seasons.

Following collection from your hotel, the airport or cruise terminal here is an idea of what to expect:

  • Direct to Winchester, the Saxon capital of England, King Alfred they say ‘the greatest Englishman that ever lived!’
  • On foot to explore the Rectory, City Bridge and Mill then the Mayors’ Abbey Gardens and England’s oldest City street.
  • No taxes at Westgate these days and on to The Great Hall and King Arthur’s Round Table and stories of Camelot and brave Knights in shining armour.
  • See what remains of the Castle, Oliver Cromwell to thank, his fight against the Royalists really took its toll.
  • At last the Cathedral, the pilgrims before you had travelled so far, the tomb of Jane Austen resides here amongst past Kings and Queens.
  • Then off past Pilgrims Hall back to today, the shops and the restaurants paving the way.

This is usually a 3 hour tour with not too much driving, we’ll explain the history and help you to explore this fascinating City on foot—some wonderful shopping too.
Why not take the short drive to Romsey from here to complete your day and maybe some lunch on the way.

Prices from £75.00 for 2 persons
