Description

Explore Leeds Castle, Canterbury, Dover and the Greenwich Peninsula on a day trip from London!

You'll first reach Leeds Castle. Built on two islands in the middle of a lake, the castle has been home to many kings and queens, including Henri VIII. You'll enjoy early entry, allowing you to be the first group to enter the castle. You'll discover the chapel, galleries, courtyards and banqueting hall.

You'll then drive through the town of Douvres, known for its port, 12th-century castle and white cliffs. Depending on traffic conditions in or near Dover, you'll have the opportunity to catch a glimpse of these famous white cliffs and enjoy the view.

You will then travel to Canterbury, the center of one of Europe's most important medieval pilgrimages, and can visit its cathedral (optional), famous not least since the murder of Thomas Beckett in 1170.

You'll continue your excursion to Greenwich, a town famous for its maritime attractions. You'll be able to admire the Cutty Sark, the fastest sailing ship of its time.

Finally, your excursion will end with a cruise on the Thames, where you can enjoy panoramic views of London landmarks such as the Tower of London, Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, etc.

We had a wonderful time on this tour, which included Leeds Castle, Canterbury Cathedral and surrounding town, coastal town of Dover with view of the magnificent cliffs, and a boat ride from Greenwich returning to London. Leeds Castle was especially beautiful even though the day was somewhat rainy, we were able to walk around the grounds and enjoy the picturesque views. Would recommend this tour to anyone visiting the UK.
