Canterbury Cathedral, Dover Castle & White Cliffs Guided Day Tour from London

The places we visited were amazing and well worth seeing. Dover castle is amazing and so were the White Cliffs and Canterbury. We had plenty of time to explore each location. However our guide was not very helpful. At each location she dropped us off and we were left to find our own way. She provided only limited information on the bus before the tour. Our coach bus was not clean and had broken seats. We sat in the back next to the restroom and had to suffer through unpleasant odors most of the day on the bus. If you expect your clients to ride a bust for 6+ hours, you need a clean bus that’s in good condition. We loved the locations but were very disappointed with our guide. It’s the first time we’ve ever been on a tour where we did not tip the tour guide.

We had a lovely day! I highly recommend this company for a fun and enjoyable day touring.

Our Guide, Andy and bus driver Jerome were fantastic. Andy was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and helpful, answering all our questions. He led us through, took pictures for us and was a fun to be with. A wonderful tour, made that much better with Andy & Jerome. Dover Castle was very cool. Unfortunately, the wartime tunnels were closed during our visit. The staff to the reenactment were hilarious. All visitors were brought in to the fun and games. White Cliffs of Dover were breathtaking. The lower path was narrow, but Andy stayed with us. Canterbury with lots of fun. The cathedral was beautiful and the main street in town was fun to walk-through. I don’t know the tour was great, plenty of time to explore on our own in between. Making a perfect balance of sightseeing and on our own exploring. Would recommend this tour 100% Thank you, Andy and Jerome for a wonderful day !!!!

Lovely trip and talkative informative guide. Very pleasent

Wonderful day in Kent. Touring Dover Castle, walking along the Cliffs of Dover and exploring Canterbury Cathedral. Eva and George made the day great. Definitely recommend.

Wonderful day spent touring Dover castle, walking along the cliffs of Dover, touring Canterbury cathedral and wandering around Canterbury. Lots of time at each stop to see everything. Eva and George were amazing.

Our tour guide was great, very friendly and knowledgeable. We wish we could have spent more than 15 minutes looking at the cliffs. There was no time to walk out there and really see them. We enjoyed Dover Castle and Canterbury. You had plenty of time to explore both of those places.

Tour was wonderful. We had a great time! Beautiful all around. Kat was an amazing tour guide and took care of my mobility challenged mother with care!! Thank you for a wonderful day!!!

The 3 sights were fantastic - Dover Castle was very impressive, the White Cliffs were a marvel, and Canterbury Cathedral was awe inspiring. I’m so happy I took this trip. Anderson’s crew great. Amy our tour guide was very knowledgeable with lots of details. Our driver was great. He got us from place to place safely and quickly. This is a great tour.

Great way to get from London to see cliffs of Dover, Dover Castle, and Canterbury Cathedral. We were able to fit everything in at the Dover Castle, but we rushed and walked quickly. We did the longer World War II tunnel tour by getting in line immediately when upon arrival. We were the last ones accepted to that small group tour of 30.So some people had to wait and then that would’ve been all they would’ve been able to do. The different tunnel exit from the castle that is medieval is very interesting also. Because we did as much as we did, I was not able to read all of the signs that were in that tunnel. But it was very interesting. Cool seeing the castle in general. Lots of things to check out. And the Rapper’s on the outsider interesting also as well as the great views from up top. Though it was a bit hazy while we were there we were able to see France. Cliffs of Dover also beautiful. Again, we had a nice enough clear enough visibility that we were able to see France. Would have liked more time at the cliffs of Dover to walk further hike further. Some of the people in our group had mobility issues and there is no way they would’ve gotten to see as much. They could only go to the viewpoint and that was a struggle. We continued along some of the trail, but would have liked more time. I literally was running to get back to the bus. Our guy told us that they have left people there before who tried to hike down to the beach. So just note that. Canterbury Cathedral was nice. Beautiful church! They have free guides in the church, but I did not see them. That would’ve been something we should have asked our Anderson tour guide, Kat about. She was not able to go into the church with us. I’m not sure if we had time to do a guided tour in the church with one of the church representatives. There’s a nice crypt in the church also, though you are not able to take any pictures there. Some cool Roman ruins outside on the grounds as well as free public toilets. I picked up a retold more modern version of Canterbury tales in the church gift shop that was outside the church., but on the ground. They had several variations of it, including a Kids picture book. Gift shop had lots to look at if you want to support the area and the church. Canterbury Cathedral is UNESCO site. Saint Augustine’s Abbey is probably 10-15 minute walk from the cathedral and is also an UNESCO site. It’s approximately 15 pounds entrance fee. And then Martin’s church is further on from that. We did not have enough time we thought to be able to tour the Augustine, Abbey or to walk on to Saint Martin’s. Something else that’s in the vicinity, but the opposite direction is the Canterbury castle ruins. They are in the vicinity of where the bus drops you off, but opposite direction of the cathedral. Cat pointed out some different restaurants and pubs of note in Canterbury to stop at if you wanted to do that while you were there. Time is definitely limited though. The tour bus makes a toilet break on the way to Dover, but they do not make stops on the way back from Canterbury at all. Just know that and make use of a public toilet before you get on the bus to go back. If this tour were to change any, my request would be to have longer time at each of the stops. We are fit and fast walkers, and we still were pushing it to get things in in the time allotted. For us, Dover was the highlight and definitely where we would have liked longer. Oh, and one more thing: where the bus drops you at the Dover Castle, and at cliffs of Dover, there are steep inclines to either get up to the viewing or the castle or to get back down, depending on how you are. Again, we had someone with mobility issues on our bus that we wondered how much they were able to see because of the time it would have taken them to walk to the site.
