(Pass by)
Our expert guide Dr. Geoff has a PhD in History from the University of Oxford and specializes in church architecture. Romsey is a great place to stop as it is on the way to Salisbury and is a medieval gem. It will be great to see a fantastic example of a 12th-century Abbey. Its craftsmanship will astound you. It gives you a great opportunity to compare it with the masterpiece that we will see at Salisbury Cathedral built only 100 years later.
We depart Southampton just after 9 am and head to Romsey Abbey, which will take about 30 minutes. Dr. Geoff will show you this fabulous building. We depart Romsey around 11:30 am.
Salisbury Cathedral and Magna Carta
We will arrive in Salisbury around noon. We can head over to a 700-year-old pub for lunch or you can choose the Cathderal restaurant. Dr Geoff starts the private tour at 1:30.
This is one of the world's great architectural treasures, a must for anyone visiting England. It has not changed in almost 750 years! You have to see it to believe it - it is awe-inspiring.
