We had a great experience. Steven was great to work with and driver Alan had great anecdotes of the area and got us there safely.

Itinerary
Travel back over 5,000 years time to prehistoric Britain and explore the ancient ruins of the world's preeminent Neolithic monument. Enjoy 2.5 hours to explore the site at your own pace as you step inside the reconstructed Neolithic houses, furnished with replica axes, pottery and other functional items. Inside the world-class visitor exhibition centre, come face-to-face with a 5,500-year-old man and discover over 250 archaeological objects on display, including jewellery and even human remains. Admire the impressive megaliths of the ancient Stone Circle, some of which stand over 9 metres (30 feet) tall and weigh more than 25 tons. Along the landscape of the Salisbury Plain, you'll see hundreds of barrows that stretch as far as the eye can see. Find out why these barrows exist, and answer other important questions along the way such as 'who made Stonehenge' and 'how was Stonehenge built'.

Steven did an amazing job, thanks for the incredible tour at Stonehenge
Over 2 hours drive coming and going . No information given during the ride to tell us about the area. Another 30 minutes at the site would be good especially over the lunch time .
Tour is functional but good. Coach has WiFi and usb charger ports. Seats are fine but not particularly luxurious or much legroom. No toilets onboard and there are no service station breaks, which is fine as long as you use the facilities before travel. 2 hours at stonehenge which was enough time to see everything if you don't dawdle. It's a long trip even without traffic, but a good option to visit from London.
Know that the trip back will take longer because of traffic in London. However, the bus assistant needs to wait until ALL the passengers are gathered together before giving instructions and speak LOUDLY. We were towards the back and could hear nothing. Had to fond someone in the area to direct ys
It was wonderful! I made sure I purchased the extra time option and it was definitely worth it! Even with the extra time I barely got back to the bus before we left! I took the walking path to the stones, but there is a shuttle. Trust me the walk is worth it! The landscape is breathtaking, and there are sheep! I hope you dont mind the sheep droppings. There was traffic on the way back, but that is not the teams fault. However, I definitely recommend not scheduling any reservations for immediately after returning. Make sure you schedule to allow for a hour or two delay just to be safe.
You get what they offer. A comfortable ride to & from Stonehenge. Our driver was skilled & very considerate. He kept us informed of our route with updates. The guide was very helpful with getting on board, getting off at Stonehenge & what to know to self-guide ourselves through the heritage site. He was very pleasant & helpful. Stonehenge, itself, is awesome. We are all a speck of sand in this universe!
It’s self guide tour, guide helped you to the bus and pointed out where to go. Experience was great.
I would really have liked to have had a guide to talk to us on the bus about what we might be seeing along the way and some information about Stonehenge before we got there.
It is a long way to go and for us we had very bad traffic. The traffic resulted in us arriving late, reducing the time had at Stonehenge. We had to rush to make it to the bus in time to get back to England. We felt the time at Stonehenge should not have been reduced.
Really comfortable journey, and the air conditioning was very much appreciated in the middle of a heatwave! The free Wi-Fi was fast enough for the basics, such as WhatsApp and Facebook. I was also able to charge my phone on the way back, using the USB port. The driver was excellent at navigating both the London traffic and the busy motorways. Evan Evans was easy to find at Victoria Coach Station, I was ridiculously early—just in case! If you do arrive early, there are plenty of coffee shops and toilets, plus a Sainsburys just a short walk outside the coach station. I also really appreciated the staff checking people in. They noticed when people tried to queue-jump by stepping in front of me (something that happens far too often when travelling solo) and, just before opening the doors, asked everyone to line up behind me. A small thing, but it made a big difference! Stonehenge itself is well worth a visit. Two hours was plenty of time to see the stones, browse the gift shop and grab something from the café. Overall, a really enjoyable and well-organised trip.
The bus boarded orderly and left on time. However, the Wi-Fi didn’t work and only one type of charger could be used, making for long trips to and from. The self guided audio tour was very helpful and informative, but it appeared this free app could be available for anyone. It was pricey, but this historical site is a must see if given the opportunity.
Instructions on where to find tour operator would have been helpful ahead of time, we were ok as we got to the station early. Host and driver were very friendly. Bus was nice, new and cool on a very hot day but very very uncomfortable seats - I know how that sounds, I was not expecting a lazy boy, but the seats were hard as a rock which killed my back on the two hour ride there and two hour ride back. I feel like this was an expensive tour for a bus ride as this is not a guided tour (you can download an app that tells you a bit about Stonehenge) took a whole of 10 minutes to walk around Stonehenge and that was it. I wouldn’t necessarily deter you from the trip but we aware that you get a bus ride there and back (no bathroom) and enter to Stonehenge - that’s it!
We enjoyed our trip to Stonehenge a lot. It was a great way to get to the site without having to navigate a rental or other means of transportation. The two hours on site was plenty of time to take the shuttles to the rocks and still grab lunch at the cafe. Our only concerns were that 1. the checkin at the bus station was hard to find at first, disorganized, and a little hectic, and 2. the seats in the bus were uncomfortable as the bus was probably not designed for such a long ride. Other than that, everything went smoothly and we'd recommend others to use this service.
The half day trip to Stonehenge was a fast, efficient, and easy way to experience the site via bus from London. The bus tour guide was thorough and quite helpful.
It was nice for what it was. It was, basically, just transportation to and from Stonehenge with an audio guide tour. If you’re looking for a fuller experience book something else. Maybe something that stops elsewhere along the way and has a guided tour. This was a six hour day with four hours spent traveling to and from. I think now I probably should have opted for a 10 hour day or an eight hour day with other stops along the way.
It’s a long half day drive but I’ve wanted to see Stonehenge since I was a little girl and it was worth the wait. Food choices onsite were ok, guide provided WiFi and it’s worth it to download the app for the tour before you need WiFi. It was informative and allowed us to participate on our own. You see it from every angle so it’s pretty cool. Coach was ok, not super comfortable and only one charger worked it was pretty cramped but otherwise fine for the drive.
We understood that the temperatures would be a bit high, so we went prepared with sunscreen, hats, an umbrella because our excursion was in June. I don’t need to talk about the actual stones because for us it was amazing to experience and see them. My biggest complaint would be with the crew of Evan Evans who managed the trip; as other Tours, for being ushered to luxury buses, we received the worst bus because it was a double-decker bus like hop-on hop-off. Truly uncomfortable, and for a five hour journey the least they could’ve done was gotten us a better more comfortable bus.
A lot of traveling; a lot to learn not met.. we traveled a total of 5-6 hours and Stonehenge was amazing but there was so much to learn that was not covered. Who were the Druids, for example?
Great coach and host, enough time to walk around freely and very well organised and set out. A great self guided tour with audio as well
Tour guide Jes and driver Dalton are awesome and added value to the experience. Great information and safe driving can’t ask for more.
On the bus ride to Stonehenge, there were no vents circulating air so it was hot & stuffy. I used CHAT to notify Viator of this matter. Someone on board did immediately address the issue & got the vents working but the air was so cool that we were all freezing & grabbing for jackets we did not bring along - unfortunately. “Climate control” should have been someone’s responsibility - the comfort of your patrons should be a top priority. At Stonehenge we were given ear phones & an audio gadget so we could do a self-guided tour of the monument. Of the 5 in our group, only 2 were able to hear the presentation. One gadget simply died, 2 others kept changing from English to Italian. It would have been far more beneficial to have had 2 guides from Viator join our bus & give a personal presentation. We returned home & Googled “Stonehenge” to get the information needed to better understand what we’d just seen. Ps - Our bus driver did a great job maneuvering safely through morning rush hour traffic. Much appreciated.
Bus went bad and it was hot in the bus. Wasted 1.5 hrs in the bus and the guide wouldn’t use microphone to communicate with travellers
Enjoyed the experience and everything was easy.
Tour itself was good, your company was disorganized. Bus broke down, no communication with guests. After 30 minutes it broke down again. Waited again finally after people complained, they announced another bus was coming but not sure when it would arrive. First bus has no bathroom facility. After 2 hour delay we again got started. We drove about an hour to a comfort stop. They gave 5 minutes for restroom break but didn't know where it was. A double decker bus full of people and find bathroom on your own and 5 minutes. Once we got to Stonehenge, everything was good. Finally arrived back in London 3 hours later than we were supposed to. Almost missed our next activity. No apologies for 6 hours tour to take 9 and the inconvenience it caused.
We enjoyed this trip, but you need to be aware that Stonehenge is a long way fro London and mkst of the day is spent in the bus. We had 2 hours at Stonehenge which was enough. Make sure to catch the shuttle as it is a 2km walk from the visitor centre to Stonehenge. Fortjnately it was not too crowded on the day we went but there was a constant stream of coaches arriving. Our coach was very comfortable, double decker and not crowded. Pleaes be aware that arrival back into London will be much later than the 3.30pm on the information. We did not get back untip 5pm. A bucket list trip for me so happy to do the traveĺ time.
It’s convenient and definitely worth seeing. Make sure you have a cellphone and earbuds as the audio guide is downloaded to your phone. There was no commentary along the way. The guide was clear in his few directions for timing. A good way to see an impressive site.
The timing was great. Not too early in the morning. I wish the app would’ve told me which gate the bus left from. The “meeting place” only said the bus station. I had to ask in the app which gate. Two hours at Stonehenge is the right amount. Enough to see it and the visitor center, gift shop, and a bite. This didn’t disappoint.
Well organized on time good price. Everything went as described with plenty of time to see what there was to see.
Was not notified that we were scheduled on the opening day of parliament and that some bus routes changed and many streets were closed. So we left our hotel one hour early for a 15 minute trip. 45 minutes later we were 10 blocks from our hotel and the cab driver said we were still 40 minutes from the meeting point. We called customer service and they said if we get there after the starting time the bus will have left and we would not get a refund. I think the tour company should notify guests about things happening in the city that they operate so customers could plan accordingly. And… will all of the money you take in from this tour. You could certainly afford to provide us a refund! Our once in a lifetime trip to London was negatively impacted by this experience. You could have made a difference in our experience. IO will not recommend your company to other travelers. Many other organizations offer trips to the beautiful spot of Stonehenge.
The transport was the problem. We were supposed to have a coach but we ended up with a city bus modify to carry more people. So we were very unconfortable for 2 hours. I did not have enough space for my legs.
This is an awe inspiring experience. Well planned and executed with very approachable guide -MJ. It was also a beautiful day which certainly enhanced the experience.
Very comfortable and smooth coach ride to and from Stonehenge. The site is very well organized. Because of our time constraints, we appreciated the shuttle service. Very impressive, worth a visit!
We had a wonderful experience with Megan. She was very knowledgeable and very enthusiastic in communicating her knowledge. We thoroughly enjoyed the day trip and would recommend it wholeheartedly.
The check-in at Victoria Coach Station was a seamless process. On the way to Stonehenge there was WiFi connectivity to the internet, but on the way back only local WiFi - no internet. The drive to Stonehenge was about 2 hours and the return to Victoria Station was about 15 minutes longer. We spent 2 hours at Stonehenge. It was what we expected and was a day trip that was well worth it.
HOOOOORRRRRIIIBBBLLLEEE!!! They left early without contacting us, when we called at they admitted they left early and refused to refund. Their instructions said to be there at 9:30 which we were and when we called they said they left at 9:25. Rude customer service personnel and unhelpful.
Wife has a new mobility issue, tube had delays, we arrived 3 minutes late after batting 1 hour across central London, staff departs exactly on time, licks up their office, will not let us return if we arrange our own outbound transportation, will not rebook us for tomorrow. As senior citizens who don’t live in London, Evan Evans is very happy to keep our money and provide no accommodations.
This tour was about 4 hours round trip travel with 2 hours to walk around the site, etc. You could circle the stones, take videos and photos and experience the site in your own way. I recommend taking the gold shuttle to the site rather than walk as it saves time. Basically Evans Evans took care of getting you there and your entrance was handled so easily. I highly recommend this tour.
I was worried about the negative reviews but my experience was a positive one. the day before, I called to confirm that the meeting point was indeed Victoria Coach Station, gate 1. The moment I entered I saw staff from Evan Evans Tours who greeted us. the bus left punctually at 930am. we ended up returning at around 415pm instead of 330pm purely due to traffic conditions. overall excellent value for the transport and ticket.
The coach was comfortable and warm. Shiela our guide was informative and friendly. You can tell she has a lot of experience. We had plenty of time to explore the Stonehenge site and several hours in the city of Bath. The Roman bath tour was interesting and worth the visit.
We enjoyed our trip. It took two hours to get there and we stayed for two hours. The ride was nice. We enjoyed looking at the country side. Two hours was just the right amount of time at Stonehenge
A “Half day” trip is not really a half day trip. we boarded the bus at.9:15am and did not return to St. Pancras bus terminal until 4:40 PM. We Completely missed out on our afternoon plans plans with friends and frankly, this should have been advertised as more of a day trip. The facilities were not functioning. Also, getting to the bus and finding the bus terminal was not easy. There was no proper signage / directions from the San Andreas train station to San Andreas bus station. It’s very confusing due to the fact. that there are many buses at the St Pancreas main station itself.
Make sure you know the gate you are departing from at the bus station before you arrive. There are over 25 gates.
Very poor communication from the tour company. The directions to the pick location gave a generic location and we were there 25 minutes early. Had to contact the tour company through chat and that is when they told to go inside to a gate. Arrived at the gate at the pick up time and the bus had already left. They knew we were there and left us there. We were traveling with a person in a wheelchair and it makes me wonder if they didn’t want to deal with us. They are refusing to give a refund or an opportunity for a future tour. Note that Viator provided no support. I will not use either companies in the future and I do travel a lot. We have traveled all around the world and have done many tours this was the first time we have ever had this happen.
The two hour one way bus ride was dirty, hot & smelly. I would not recommend to a friend. Tour was fine.
The audio part only is about 3 minutes and is basically a welcome to Stonehenge. It doesn’t provide any information about the sight.
You meet at a bus station, where a lot of other tour groups meet and it's a bit confusing to find where you're supposed to be. Give yourself plenty of time to wander around asking. The bus we were on was not completely full, if it had been, it would have been fairly uncomfortable. It also took 2 hours to get there with traffic. The bus takes you right to the welcome station for Stonehenge with a gift shop, restrooms and cafe. There, you can get on a shuttle that takes you right up to Stonehenge. You get an audio tour of the monument which is educational but you don't have much time to explore if you want time to get lunch, go to the restroom and shop. The cafe is absolutely packed and getting anything fresh was out of the question. On the way home, for almost an hour and a half, the AC was barely working on the bus which was very uncomfortable. Also, the bus dropped us at off at a totally different place than was listed in the description. Which made us late to our next reservation.
Was recommended this experience by a friend and it did not disappoint! the bus picked us up from Victoria coach station right on time, our guide was great and handed out the audio guides when we got on. The drive there was pleasant and once in the country it was stunning. The extended time is worth it! we had time to take pictures, have a picnic, and get to visit the gift shop. Overall, i highly recommend this tour!
It was canceled twice. And I didn't get my money back. Evan Evans asked me to contact TripAdvisor myself for a refund, and they never answered. I'm extremely disappointed.
It was so much fun! Sandra was a fantastic guide and Christian was an excellent driver. Sandra was extremely knowledgeable of the villages and Christian kept us safe.
