It’s wise to see Stonehenge before the crowds gather

If you are visiting Stonehenge for the first time, there are a couple of things to consider. First, the area around the monument is extremely popular with visitors. If you want a quieter experience, I advise you to plan your visit in advance. Because of its historical significance, there are often lines of people waiting to have their photographs taken with the monument or to buy souvenirs. We recommend starting your trip early and beat the crowds.
