Stonehenge After Hour tour

We will be in London November 24-December 3 2016. Would like to book a after hour tour of Stonehenge but don't see any for this time frame. I'ver just done a quick internet search- any suggestions?

Thanks
Chb

Last year Inner Access was not offered from November til early Spring. I assume the same would apply this year. But you can e-mail English Heritage and ask them . . .

The best-connected England tour company for bespoke experiences like this is Noteworthy Events — http://www.noteworthy.co.uk/about-us/

They can get you access to things like after-hours tours, seeing the Churchill War Rooms (and actually getting *into* the room and sitting in the chair), watching the Changing of the Guard from *inside* the Wellington Barracks, etc.

OK -- I know you are a travel agent -- but tour companies don't determine access - English Heritage does. Are you suggesting one can have Inner Access when English Heritage doesn't offer it . . .???

Noteworthy is not a "tour company." They do have relationships built over 30 years that can get you exclusive access at many places when nobody else can. They may have more pull with English Heritage than you do — or maybe not. It costs you nothing to ask, and the worst case scenario is that they won't be able to pull strings for you.

Your big issue is that in Nov/Dec it'll be dark at 4pm so there's literally no point in an after hours tour because you won't see a thing. That's why they're not offered till the spring.

And BTW, same applies to early inner access since at the time they would be run it is still dark.
