Waterloo Station is the United Kingdom’s busiest railway station and even competes for the title of Europe’s busiest station. It serves as a station for rail, bus, and underground and all points of interest can be readily found from there. This is why one would be looking to get from Waterloo Station to Salisbury, using Waterloo as a starting point. In London one can easily find their way to Waterloo.

Salisbury is a great day trip from London as it is the nearest rail station to Stonehenge. Stonehenge is an attraction that captures the imagination of people the world over. The mystery is very appealing. Having been built almost two thousand years BC, it still keeps many things secret. How was it used or built? This gives much to contemplate when visiting the site. Stonehenge is now secured by a fence to protect it from wear and vandalism.

Lesser known but adding to the mystique is additional sites Avebury and Silbury Hill. Avebury has a lot of similarity and ties to Stonehenge, with stones erected for purposes that are lost in prehistoric Britain. Like Avebury, Silbury Hill is a man-made mound that was also built in prehistoric Britain. Taking this day trip is wonderful idea.

The best form of traveling for this London day trip is by rail. Each hour there are usually two trains to Salisbury from Waterloo. Once at Salisbury one will have to make their way to Stonehenge. But there will be plenty of commercial services available to help.
