Overview
Modernise your visit to Britain's Neolithic wonder, with the Stonehenge Independent Podcast Tour. Designed to make every Stonehenge experience as captivating as possible, this immersive audio guide borrows the laid-back approach of a podcast, with plenty of engaging humour, quirky facts, and lively conversation.
We start our tour at the Neolithic Village and we discover the origins of Stonehenge and try to get to the bottom of what Stonehenge was created for.
Our walk continues onto the Stone Display. We debunk the myths around how and why the Stones got here in an era where it seemed impossible to create such a landmark. We also delve into the ancient superstitions (some of which still exist today) around the Stones.
Next up is Fargo Wood and Cursus where we discover an ancient monument and ancient earthwork that are very much off the beaten tourist path.
Now here’s what we’ve all been waiting for..Stonehenge itself! How did they get here? Why are they here? What is the meaning of the stone placements? We answer all of your questions on the origins and significance of this spectacular archaeological site. This is a great chance to look on-screen to see historical photos of Stonehenge and see how it has changed throughout the years.
We move onto Heel Stone and learn about the ancient myths of how a dispute between the Devil himself and Friar led to the bizarre placement of Heel Stone.
Our tour continues onto Station Stones which gives us a perfect panoramic view of Stonehenge before we get to Ley Lines and learn about the ancient belief of energy lines which may have played a key role in Stonehenge being constructed on this spot.
Our final stops are Aubrey Holes and Bluestones. Here we learn about the potential original location of Stonehenge as well as what the future holds for this iconic landmark.
The Vidi Guides experience is enriched with on-screen photos and videos. We also point out where to take the perfect Instagram photos during the tour, and include recommendations for food, drinks, and local attractions. Don't worry, none of our recommendations are sponsored - they are simply favourites of the locals who helped craft the experience.
