      Thanks mate! It’s the Jewel in the crown for them mate!! Probably gets the most tourists here other than London! I bet most tourists have this place on the list! It’s understandable as it’s fantastic! You can actually drive past it and get a good look still and I’m surprised they have not moved the road !

      Well when we were here it was very busy with American tourists who had been on some sort of cruise and had this place as a trip out! However so much to see around here you could have a vacation in the uk with a bit of planning

    I was there in 1989. Things have certainly changed and I never recall the interpretive Centre, that must be new. Thank you for showing us around Stone Hedge. They still look amazing. I did also recall getting up much closer. Have a great Easter 🐣👍🏽🙏🏽

      Hi my friends! Think I visited in the late 80s and 90s also! Your right the centre was not around back then as it’s fairly new and from the centre you cannot even see stone henge! You either have a mile walk or you get a bus to it! Bus is free but the walk is pleasant anyway! You definitely could get way closer to the stones! I’ve been under them at some point in the past but not sure when or how! May have been a tour. Anyway it’s a fantastic mystical place but also not far away you have a few less busy places that also have stones from that period! Sorry for the delay in replying

      I can’t even comprehend the skill that was required to make this! The stones were from wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 and were dragged all the way here! Just no idea how that was possible and also how were they lifted up just blows my mind!

    Wonderful tour to Stonehenge!! This is just one of those place. Been there a long time ago, looks like they changed the entrance and added some more items. I wish I could put the drone up and heard landmark trust was very upset about Drone, specifically so many over Stonehenge. Thanks for sharing mate!

    Great to see it after many years. Never been up at all close ever though. Seems like visitors centres are all out to do one better than the next. Maybe you visited the Bannockburn one by Stirling when you were up? Good weekend ahead, Raymondo. I bet you all get out there and enjoy every minute. Take care all!

    Feels like being here again for the third or fourth time. Thank you for this marvellous tour, Raymondo. Watching this while I'm on a quick brunch before school starts. And congrats on the 800+ subs! You'll definitely be getting to 1K subs in no time or even before this year ends. That's for sure, so keep up the great work! Speaking of which, I find Wiltshire one of the quaintest yet very charming counties in the south. If one is into ancient pre-history then he or she will enjoy the place esp. since besides the Stonehenge, there's Longleat, Savernake, and Marlborough Downs.

      @@RaymondoLeeTravel You can do it. Passion is evident in each and every one of your lovely uploads, Raymondo. As an aside, I have a suggestion. You are so prolific when it comes to uploading videos. Perhaps one way to increase the views to your desired goal of 100 views per upload is to limit your output. For example instead of 6 or 7 videos per week, make it 4 or 5. I hope it works. :)

      Hi Rick so I would say around 1 mile but from the start you can enjoy the adventure lab to that take you from visitor centre to stone henge then get the bus back! That’s what we did anyway 😊 remember that one we did that’s got a funny answer! That was the first one! Good day out when you add the other parts into it!
