Your Itinerary

Canterbury

I would love to take you on a private tour driven by a chauffeur to explore the vibrant city of Canterbury with its magnificent cathedral, narrow lanes, and medieval buildings. We will be traveling via remote Kent with its vineyards and orchards. Once we arrive at the city, our walk will include: Cathedral visit (tickets are not included) where we will admire the gothic architecture of the nave, find out about the murder of the Archbishop of Canterbury, go down to the Norman crypt, and much more. We will get to know this ancient city by walking through old market lanes, passing city gates, Weaver’s house, hospitals for pilgrims, and monasteries. We will go on a picturesque walk by the river and see for ourselves why Canterbury is often called Little Venice. There will be literature connections to Jeffrey Chaucer, Christopher Marlow and Charles Dickens.

Canterbury Cathedral

We will visit the Cathedral, one of the oldest, most beautiful and important churches in England. It is also the cradle of Christianity, the place of the horrific murder and burial place of some members of the Royal Family. The tickets are not included but can be purchased on the day, adult price is £14.00.
