Beliggende i Kent, 'The Garden of England', ligger Leeds Castle, et smukt middelalderligt slot, der ofte omtales som 'verdens smukkeste slot'. Med 500 hektar anlagt parkland for at udforske og upåklageligt opretholdt haver at nyde, er det nemt at se, hvorfor dette smukke slot var et begunstiget slot af kong Henry VIII, der gav det til sin første kone, Ateronien i Aragon. I sin 900-årige historie har slottet været hjemsted for ikke mindre end seks dronninger og tjent mange funktioner, herunder optræden som garnison, fængsel og det statlige private hjem for sine seneste ejere. Lær alt om dette og mere som vores ekspert tour guide bringer sin fascinerende historie til livet.
Et udpeget UNESCO World Heritage Site, Canterbury Cathedral er både et fredfyldt sted for hellighed og smukke turistmål. Som ærkebiskopens katedral, den engelske kirkes åndelige leder, har Canterbury et særligt sted i britisk historie. Ingen almindelig domkirke, Canterbury har en lang historie, der ofte beskrives som 'England in Stone'; fra rollen som dens ærkebiskopper i Magna Carta til mordet på Thomas Becket efter en magtkamp med Kongen af England, er Canterhays historie sammenflettet med Englands. Katedralen i dag er grundlagt af St. Augustine i 600 e.Kr., og er en af de fineste eksempler på gotisk arkitektur i England og den første bygning i landet, der skal redesignes i denne populære stil i 1774.
Dover Castle er et middelalderligt slot i Dover, Kent, England. Det blev grundlagt i det 11. århundrede og er blevet beskrevet som "Nøglen til England" på grund af sin defensive betydning gennem historien. Det er det største slot i England.
Opstigning 350ft over den engelske kanals bølger, de hvide klipper i Dover er et øjeblikkeligt genkendeligt vartegn for Storbritannien. Fra Caesar til Shakespeare anerkendte nogle af historiens vigtigste figurer klippernes højhøjde symbolik. Traditionelt stedet hvor britiske royalty ville byde oversøiske besøgende, tjente klipperne som en skræmmende påmindelse om Storbritanniens ubesværede uafhængighedsfølelse.

This was a good tour, but not sufficient for the money paid for it. The biggest objection was the Guide, Sasha. At the start she was so excited and excitable that even as we were boarding I had to ask her if she'd already had 6 cups of coffee. It was impressive at the start, but her over-enthusiasm became tiresome and frustrating as the tour wore on. By the time we were half through we were fairly sure she was on some sort of drug-uppers. By the end we were quite sure of it. Worse, at the beginning we were issued listening boxes for the Cathedral. Nice! But by the time we got there she said "Never mind" and merely pointed to the Cathedral and said, "Go look for yourself." Why not? I do not know where she disappeared to. So our tour of the Canterbury Cathedral itself, supposedly the highlight of the tour, was much less than it might have been. Also, at Leeds Castle there were voice boxes but we were not authorized to use them. She also several times would not wait for stragglers and marched on leaving some of the guests to try to find the group. On the whole I would give the sights an A, the very-talkative Driver of the bus a C and the Tour Guide a D-. KRM and JWB
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience going to Leeds Castle, White Cliffs of Dover and Canterbury Cathedral today. Manon was an exceptionally knowledgeable guide, extremely friendly and she knew all the best spots for great pictures (she even took on the task of Volunteer Photographer). We really feel this experience was more than worth the price we paid. Also, I feel the need to mention our driver, Greg, as he expertly navigated the bus while we all took in the sites.

Thank you for choosing Evan Evans, and we hope to welcome you on another tour in the future. Kind Regards, Evan Evans Team
Our tour was BEYOND expectations and simply wonderful. Our tour guide, Phil, was exceptional and really deserves a raise!! His comments were insightful and personal. I appreciated his passion for history and deep love for his home country. Not to mention, he greeted each of us individually on the bus and encouraged us to ask questions along the way. He spoke in a clear and engaging way and never tired when talking to us during the entire bus ride there and back! Very impressive. Additionally, our driver, Greg, also kept us safe and comfortable on the road. Couldn’t have asked for a better duo. Sincere thanks to both!

Overall our trip and the locations were fantastic! What made the outing so special was the tour guide we had, Phil. It was obvious that he was devoted to his job and he gave so many intriguing facts!! We ended up taking two more tours and Phil proved to be very superior to our next two guides. He went above and beyond expectations and we learned so much. Our whole party agreed we'd come back to London solely for his tour. There was so much he taught us we didn't know and we especially felt he was very good at retelling history from a non-bias standpoint. We 100% recommend Phil and Evan and Evans tours. The locations are beautiful and our day was spent very well. If anyone asked, I would be absolutely delighted to let them know how much the tour fu-PHIL-ed everything we hoped for and more. A loud applause for the company of Evan and Evans and the loudest for PHIL!! May he forever be a tour guide!!! Pls tell Phil we are Phil fans! For Phil: -Thank you so much! From the people you ran into a second time at Stonehenge.
Dear Guest, Thank you so much for your amazing review. We’re thrilled to hear Phil made such a lasting impression on your group. His passion for history, engaging storytelling and genuine enthusiasm are qualities we truly value, and we’ll be sure to pass your wonderful comments on to him. We especially loved hearing that your day "fu-PHIL-ed" all your expectations! Thank you for your recommendation and for being such enthusiastic Phil fans. We look forward to welcoming you back on another Evan Evans tour in the future. Kind regards, Evan Evans
Our experience with Andy Jackson as our tour guide was truly exceptional. From the start, he provided outstanding support—he arranged taxis, carried our bags, and guided us to top dining spots. His professionalism and genuine care made the trip seamless, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly.

The tour was extremely interesting and even though it's a long day, it's a good amount of stops and time with the travel time. Canterbury Cathedral was a dream to see. My only comment about the cliffs is that I assumed we would drive at the top and see the view from the cliffs. The view is from the sea level and beach, so know that before going. Lesley was a great tour guide and had a breadth of knowledge and a very soothing voice!

The tour guide knew her history and was very educational to listen to. Of every tour guide in London, enjoyed this one most! The bus driver, (Tony ;) friendly and accommodating. Canterbury cathedral is beautiful. The story of the "Watchers" protecting it during the World War, touching. Sites and scenery, lovely. Would recommend bringing snacks or sandwiches, and beverages. You do get to put your toes in the English Channel, but won't be able to touch the Cliffs of Dover. If you want up close might explore boating options or going elsewhere? I really don't have the answer as an outsider visiting. We still enjoyed our day very much! Leeds Castle from Queens to an American prior to given away, was an unexpected twist. As Americans, our group enjoyed that fact. If you are in London a few days and looking to explore and get out of the city, this might be a great option!
Dear Guests, Thank you for your lovely review. We’re delighted to hear that your guide was terrific, punctual and entertaining. It’s great to know that you had plenty of time to enjoy and explore everything during the tour. Kind regards, Evan Evans
