7 Day Southern England Itinerary, incl. Isle of Wight and Cornwall
England's diversity shines across 16 cities from London to Cornwall. UNESCO-listed Stonehenge, Queen Victoria's Osborne House, and Cornwall's coastline create lasting memories. Selected guesthouses provide comfort while visiting Dartmoor National Park, St Michael's Mount, and historic Glastonbury Abbey.
- Day 1
London to Isle of Wight
Leave from Victoria Coach Station at 9:15 AM. You'll need to check in by 8:45 AM. The drive to Portsmouth takes about 2 hours followed by an hour-long ferry ride to the Isle of Wight. One traveler noted: "Christo, our guide, timed the Portsmouth arrival perfectly to avoid the lunchtime crowds at Spinnaker Tower." Try to sit on the port side of the ferry to see Portsmouth's historic dockyards.
- Day 2
Isle of Wight Exploration
Stay in Shanklin and visit Osborne House first thing in the morning around 10 AM before the tour groups arrive. Head to The Needles in the afternoon but bring a windproof jacket. The viewpoint gets quite windy. If you're visiting from April to September, go to St Catherine's Down for a beautiful sunset photo opportunity.
- Day 3
Stonehenge and Winchester
Take an early ferry back to the mainland. You'll walk on lots of cobbled streets in Winchester, the ancient capital, so wear comfortable shoes. At Stonehenge, book your entry time ahead if you're visiting in peak summer. The land train to the stones runs every 10 minutes. You'll spend the night in Exeter, where you'll stay for two nights.
- Day 4
Dartmoor National Park
Spend the day exploring Dartmoor's wild landscape. The weather changes quickly here so bring layers. Visit the Clapper Bridge at Postbridge early for the best photos. Back in Exeter you can take your time exploring the 900-year-old cathedral and Roman walls.
- Days 5-6
Cornwall Coast
Get an early start at Tintagel Castle since parking fills up fast. Next visit Port Isaac, a pretty fishing village. A visitor advised: "The coastal path from Port Isaac has incredible views, but wear proper walking shoes - it gets slippery even in dry weather." On day 6 visit St. Michael's Mount but check the tide schedule first as it affects access. Continue to Land's End and the Minack Theatre for great coastal views. Just note the theatre closes Mondays and Tuesdays in winter.
- Day 7
Return to London
Stop at Glastonbury on your final day. The 20-minute climb up the Tor rewards you with views across five counties on clear days. You'll reach London Victoria around 7:30 PM, so plan any onward train travel after 8:30 PM.

What people love about 7-day England tours
- Southern England & Stonehenge - 7 days
We had a lovely time on our Rabbie’s tour! We appreciate being taken to a lot of places we might never have thought to explore on our own. The guides pack a lot of places into each day, and the smaller coach makes for a more personal feeling tour than a huge bus.
- London & Country
Overall, the tour met our expectations as there was a good mix of tours through Globus with plenty of time for us to explore on our own.
- Heart of England
We really enjoyed the tour. The pace was excellent. We loved the sites we saw and locations we visited. We were very lucky with the weather, so that was great too. The two things I would mention for improvement are: At the Roman Baths, there were six or seven of us who would have preferred to take more time there. Instead, we were rushed through the last part of it as the rest of the group (10 people) were waiting. The other is that Tony sometimes share information with only the people who were within earshot, when others would have benefited from hearing it as well.
