Stonehenge With Bath or With Oxford: Which Day Trip From London?

Same price, from $95 to $97, same Stonehenge visit and Windsor in the morning. Roman Baths or Oxford colleges: how the two days differ and who each suits. October 2026.

Updated October 2026

Pick Bath for the Roman Baths and Georgian streets; pick Oxford for the colleges and a guided walk through the city. The two classic day trips from London cost about the same, from $95 to $97 (October 2026), both start in Windsor and both give you the same standard visit at Stonehenge. The difference is the third stop, and the shape of the day it creates.

Choose Bath if

You want the most memorable single sight of the day after the stones. The Roman Baths are the best-preserved Roman bathing complex in Britain, built around a hot spring that still flows today, and the whole city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in its own right. Bath also has the stronger story with Stonehenge: Neolithic England at midday, Roman England in the afternoon. The cost is a longer drive, so the coach gets back to London later.

Choose Oxford if

You have been to Bath already, or the idea of college quads, chapels and covered markets appeals more than a spa. The Oxford day includes a walking tour, so you get context as well as free time, and Oxford sits on the way home, which takes some of the strain out of the driving. It also suits families with older children interested in the Harry Potter filming locations, several of which are in the university.
