Very enjoyable actor the grandsons
Excellent day out loads of history to absorb spanning several centuries Food in NAFFI was well priced and good selection
Very picturesque and impressive Castle & grounds. Good guided tours included in admission price and several multimedia presentations and lots of information on display . Secret wartime tunnels so interesting.Good reasonably priced cafe and also a children’s play area . Lots of walking and steps and some inclines so bear this in mind. Great value for money
Great visit to Dover Castle- which actually looks like a proper castle!! Great information – will load out and really informative. Great views across the Channel on the top as well dashing enjoyable day out.
There's lots to see here and you need flat shoes! All the English Heritage staff were great and very welcoming.
Dover Castle was amazing, it was everything I expected and so much more. I would recommend it to everyone.
Dover Castle is the biggest castle in England so you would expect it to be busy - it was. But seeing as it was big, people were generally dispersed throughout the 85 acres of grounds. There are interactive exhibitions, viewing platforms and a wide range of stuff you can see. There are tours throughout the war tunnels but you don't have to pay extra for them which was great. Generally the visit was relaxed and enjoyable. There were no tour guides hustling you about or anything, and there were lots of nice picnic benches and cafés to enjoy a refreshment or a break. The grounds are really well maintained and a lot of it is open to view. The views from on top of the towers are amazing and everything has a fascinating history. It is great for school trips or families and anyone who enjoys castles or scenery. It takes maybe 2+ hours to do at least but the nice thing is that you can go at your own pace. I spent 4 hours at a fairly slow pace so as to fully experience everything I wanted to.
Entrance tickets only. Excellent castle to tour. Love Viator. Plan on about 4 hours to see everything.
There are many things to do and see on this 80 + acres. Best if you can spend at least 2-3 hours so you don't miss out on the fantastic history of this beautiful castle.
If you're visiting England you can't miss this amazing historical place. I loved it!
