A taxi from Salisbury to Stonehenge makes sense in a handful of situations. If you are a group of four or more people, the per person cost becomes competitive with the shuttle. If you have very limited mobility and need door to door service including drop off right at the entrance, a taxi offers more flexibility than a fixed schedule shuttle. If you are on a very tight time schedule and need to leave at a specific moment not aligned with our departures, a taxi gives you complete control.
For solo travellers and couples the shuttle wins on price every time. £15 return on the shuttle versus £60 to £80 return by taxi for a solo passenger is a significant difference. The shuttle also solves the return journey problem that many taxi users encounter: getting a taxi back from Stonehenge requires pre booking or calling from the site, and taxis are not always immediately available. On the shuttle, your return seat is guaranteed when you book outbound.
There is a taxi rank at Salisbury train station if you do decide that route is right for your trip.
