Salisbury Cathedral (which is also not far from Stonehenge, but the henge is very tourist-packed)

the city of Bath is very cool too
Spent 2 weeks in London, awesome, so historic and memorable.
I just HAD to see Stonehenge...touristy or not...I've been spellbound by it since I was a kid.....it was soooo cool! Did Bath and Salisbury Cathedral on that same bus trip...beyond words...IIRC the Cathedral was built in the 1200s....you're standing there inside this GINORMOUS cathedral, made of stone, and it's been there since BEFORE America was discovered! Same with the city of Bath....to see such history is just fantastic.

Another really cool thing we did (on the advice of a local!) was take a train to Hever Castle. It's not that touristy or a real big name....but it had a hedge maze, and a moat (IIRC) and was soooo cool to tour.

Hope you guys have a fantastic time!
