Amazing day of beauty and history! - We had a great trip with Ana (guide) and Singh (driver)! Ana shared a lot of backgrpund information about the places that we visited. The castle was beautiful, the Canterbury cathedral was amazing for both its history and beauty! We had timeon our own in Canterbury to eat lunch at an authentic English pub, which was fun. The white cliffs of Dover were pretty, and it was a nice end to a very enjoyable day with an ice cream on the beach. We would definitely recommend as a day trip from London to see some history of the surrounding area!

Great trip through History - Leeds castle and Canterbury were wonderful. The white cliffs of Dover were fine, but you can't get a good look from land.

Wonderful day trip to Kent County - My husband and I had a wonderful time on this tour. Our guide, Kevin, was funny and shared so much insight into not only England's long history but also the history of each of our stops. It made us want to know more. Everything was well organized and easy from purchasing the tickets, meeting at the coach station, stopping at each of the sights and having some time to walk around on our own. After being in the city for several days it was nice seeing the countryside and quaint areas. highly recommend this tour.

This is a great trip out... - This is a great trip out of London. Leeds Castle and the Canterbury Cathedral were both amazing. Our guide, Phil, was informative. I learned a great deal from his knowledge. And the commentary on London sights as we departed and arrived back into the city was great. I felt like I received a two-for-one trip! Kudos to Phil and our driver, Barrington!

Great experience. - Great experience, a whole day spent visiting the beauties of the English countryside. Our guide Ana was excellent; we are an Italian family, but despite the tour being in English, we were able to follow along well with what she shared during the journey. The driver was also accommodating and friendly towards us.

Tour guide, Pablo and... - Tour guide, Pablo and driver, Christian were awesome. The tour could definitely be improved however. A 10 hour trip and no time set aside for lunch or bathroom breaks. Even if lunch is not included, there should be time allowed. Very limited options at Leeds castle, none at Dover and arriving at Canterbury at 330 then touring the cathedral make lunch difficult.
