Dover Castle and Canterbury Cathedral tour


Discover the very beginning of England’s Christian heritage at Canterbury and explore one of the countries great medieval castles with World War Two secret tunnels.

Your chauffeur will drive through south-east London and onto the Canterbury freeway.

Canterbury is England’s most important place for Christian worship, where St. Augustine was given land to build a monastery in the late 6th century. Today’s great Cathedral is a Gothic masterpiece and a highlight of a visit to the city.

Your chauffeur can get you down to the cathedral entrance, where you can meet your booked guide or take a media guide. The Cathedral is 525 ft in length and 236 ft high. It is the location of the martyrdom of St. Thomas Becket, which turned the city into a major pilgrimage place to visit the saint’s shrine. Enjoy lunch in the city centre before heading to Dover Castle.

Dover Castle is the lock and key to England, guarding the English Channel since Roman times. Your chauffeur will drive into the gates and up to the car park and pull beside the ticket office. Please note that Dover has many stories and exhibitions. The “Keep” tells the story of the reign of King Henry II in the 12th century. The Secret War Time Tunnels section has two timed tours that take you into the tunnels beneath the castle and tell the story of The Battle of Britain and Operations Dynamo (the evacuation from Dunkirk in 1940) when Dover was a secret hospital. Your driver will remind you to check the precise timing when you arrive.

The return journey from Dover is approximately 2 hrs 10 minutes.
