Description
Salisbury Cathedral sits on an 80-acre walled Close and is situated around a 1 hour drive from London. The Cathedral is an early English example of Gothic architecture and was built over a 38 year period between 1220 and 1258. Here, you can view Britain’s tallest spire at 123 metres and the world’s oldest working mechanical clock, dating back to 1836.
1215 Magna CartaSalisbury Cathedral houses the finest surviving of the worlds remaining four versions of the great charter, more famously known as the 1215 Magna Carta. The Magna Carta is a UNESCO protected document and is permanently housed in the Cathedral’s 13th century stone carved Chapter House, which depicts sixty Old Testament scenes. The Magna Carta is a legal document that was issued by King John in June 1215, to outline certain rights of individuals. It has over 60 clauses, covering many areas of the nation’s life, including the right to a fair trial.

Excelente
Fue el mejor día de nuestro viaje a Salisbury. Se agradece el magna Carta. Es una noche redonda: comés bien y ves un espectáculo de verdad. Se respetó al minuto el horario de regreso. Ya lo recomendé a dos amigos que viajan el mes que viene.

Amazing day
It flew by and we wanted more. Great that full Access To The Cloisters, Close And Chapter House Housing The 1215 Magna Carta was included. Do not hesitate, book it.

Super recomendo
Fomos surpreendidos positivamente. Usamos acesso total aos claustros, claustros e casa capitular que abriga a Magna Carta de 1215 o tempo todo e funcionou perfeitamente. É uma forma bem prática de se localizar na cidade no primeiro dia. Não pense duas vezes, reserve.

Positivo no geral
Gostamos bastante, com alguns detalhes pequenos. O ritmo era confortável, nem corrido nem chato. Passar por Gran Bretaña já valeu o tour todo. Ficou um pouco longo na parte do meio. Faria de novo de qualquer forma.

Vale la pena
Contentos con la experiencia, aunque no todo fue perfecto. Aprovechamos magna Carta más de lo que pensábamos. El audio se cortaba en un par de tramos. Lo recomiendo, con las aclaraciones que hice.

Una experiencia hermosa
Una experiencia redonda. El grupo no era enorme, lo que hizo todo más cómodo. El guía contaba historias que no están en ninguna guía de viaje. Si volvemos a Salisbury, lo repetimos.
