After our central London pickups, we will begin our journey to Dover to view one of the country’s most spectacular natural features, the White Cliffs of Dover. The cliffs are part of the North Downs formation and reach up to 350 feet.
Once you have taken plenty of photos of the beautiful views, we will start our short trip to one of the largest castles in the country Dover Castle (entrance included). The castle was strategically placed at the shortest crossing point to continental Europe and you will have plenty of time to explore the grounds and learn all about the history of the castle from the Romans to the Cold War.
Our final destination is Canterbury where you will be given access to Canterbury Cathedral, Mother Church of the worldwide Anglican Communion and cathedral of the Archbishop of Canterbury, leader of the Church of England. You will have plenty of time to explore the cathedral as well as see what the rest of Canterbury has to offer. Why not visit St Martin’s Church and St Augustine’s Abbey? Or perhaps you may enjoy The Beaney House of Art and Knowledge which is an Art Museum and Library (entrance is free). Whatever you find to do in Canterbury, we are sure that his beautiful town will not disappoint.
After a full day in Kent we will depart back to London with an expected arrival time of 6:30pm (your tour manager will provide an exact time and location to meet back at the coach).
