Planning to go to London for a few days and was wondering is it worth spending time seeing Stonehenge. While it is one of the wonders, London is full of activities and got stuck in a limbo… Is it worth it? Thanks!

Stonehenge is not in London, so I can only assume you are visiting from another country?
It’s about a two hour drive, doesn’t have good transport links, and while it and the visitor centre are interesting, I wouldn’t go there if I was visiting London as you’ll miss a lot of what the area has to offer. If you are only in London for a couple of days, why not concentrate on that because there is so much in London. A four hour drive for a bunch of stones is a harder sell.
Make a dedicated trip towards the south west on a second occasion and you won’t regret it.
Stonehenge, Salisbury Cathedral, carry on in that direction and you’ll have Bath, Glastonbury, Wookey Hole, further still and you’ll have Lyme Regis, then Dartmore and Dartmouth. Amazing places that deserve a full day each.
Yeah this. It’s also been fenced off since 1977 so you can only view it from a distance. Stop by if you’re in that area, sure, but don’t take an entire day out of your trip for it. You won’t be stuck for things to do in London for a few days.
