Super tour - The timing was perfect allowing ample time to see and enjoy each location. Sandra, our tour guide was amazing in her knowledge and communication skills. Leeds Castle is terrific to view, allowing one to see how people actually live today in these Castles. Very enjoyable tour. Thank you

Majestic sites with awesome guide! - Wonderful day with Megan. She was so warm and attentive, eager to answer questions, share her knowledge , and be there for any and all questions. Leeds Caste was my favorite, but all three stops helped me get the most of of seeing areas outside of London . Highly recommended!

A good tour guide makes a big difference! - Our tour guide, Megan, was super friendly and knowledgable but didn't drone on and on. She was absolutely lovely and made the trip incredibly enjoyable. Everything was well timed so we didn't feel rushed and got to really enjoy the sites. We were back on time and returned to the drop off location stipulated in the description, which was super helpful.

Alex and Lesley are the best! - Alex our driver and Lesley our tour guide were a fantastic duo! They were thorough and professional. Lesley genuinely cared that everyone on the tour enjoyed their experience and Alex even stopped in East London on our way back for members of our tour who were staying on that side of London. She gave us a plethora of information that was fun and interesting - all of which enhanced our tour experience. Thanks to both of them for a great day and great way to explore these areas!

Wonderful experience - This was an excellent tour. Lesley (tour guide) and Alex (driver) were excellent. Lesley was so knowledgeable but also had a good feel for how much information was enough. Alex treated us to some extra sights as we had extra time due to good traffic, driving us to see the castle above dover. The sights were all spectacular. Because you are doing three sights in one day you don't have a lot of time at any of them but it lets you see a big variety of things. Totally worth it! Pro tip: Bring sandwiches or something with you for lunch so that you can use your extra time in Canterbury for exploring the cute town.

It was a great day to go!... - It was a great day to go! Leeds Castle was beautiful and Canterbury cathedral was amazing. Wait to eat in Canterbury. Rough ride back due to someone attempting to cut in front of bus, but driver and guide were lovely.

Family day trip - This trip was so fun. We traveled with two young children and the tour guide was great with them and it was easy to manage. My minor critique is that the trip to Dover took us to the port of Dover and I was expecting to be a little closer to the white cliff's. Overall this was a great trip with children and I would recommend.

Pick a better tour than this one! - I am disappointed with the white cliffs that was awful and told to use the most smelly and dirty beach bathroom. Leeds castle was a huge let down. It was so small and done in 20 minutes. Go to Windsor or buckingham place for a better experience. Then I paid for the church with my tour. The tour guide ignored my request and I messaged Viator to help with it. I had to pay $70 pounds just for my family and I to go to the church. That was pricey. Don’t waste your time or money with this tour.

Don't Use Sasha! - 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
