Direktvergleich, Preise und Tipps. Wir wählen einen Sieger — aber beide haben ihren Platz, wenn Sie Zeit haben.

Das Urteil

Sieger: Windsor Castle

Wenn Sie nur Zeit für eines haben, wählen Sie Windsor Castle. Yes, Windsor Castle is the best royal day out from London. Book the 10am entry, head straight for St George's Chapel before the coach groups arrive, and remember the castle is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Stonehenge ist trotzdem worth it, if…, ordnen Sie es nur niedriger ein.

The standing stones of Stonehenge under a wide sky
7.2/10

Stonehenge

From £72 · Half-day to full-day trip

Worth it if you accept what it is: around two hours at a genuinely awe-inspiring site, wrapped inside a long coach day. The half-day trip is the efficient choice, pairing it with Bath or Windsor makes better use of the travel, and only inner-circle tours get you past the rope.

Wer sollte was wählen?

Stonehenge wählen, wenn…

  • Around 5,000 years old, older than the Great Pyramid, and stranger in person than any photo.
  • The visitor centre exhibition turns a pile of stones into a story worth the trip.
  • Combined tours with Bath, Windsor or Oxford make a genuinely full day of it.
  • Inner-circle tours put you inside the stones, something day visitors never see.

Windsor Castle wählen, wenn…

  • The oldest and largest occupied castle in the world, still a working royal residence.
  • St George's Chapel, burial place of ten monarchs including Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth II.
  • Lavish State Apartments with works by Rembrandt, Rubens and Van Dyck.
  • Easy to reach: under an hour by train, with Windsor town on the doorstep.
