Money well spent - The small group tour experience was great. The coach itself was well maintained. We particularly enjoyed Len as our guide who continued to share knowledge about the different cities on the tour. It was well balanced with the right amount of commentary and silence giving us room to take a nap or have a conversation.
Highly recommend Len and the tour :)

A great trip to see the countryside and the seaside! - Len was an excellent guide! He made sure that he gave recommendations but was never overbearing. He found the perfect picture points for the best views!

A great day out. - Very pleasant day. Jamie was a great tour guide with a mix of historical information and some humour thrown in. The group had sufficient time at each location to sightsee, grab some food or shop. Highly recommended.

Kevin Rocks Southeast England - Kevin was amazing and he made this trip so much fun! He made waking up early so worth it and we got to see parts of England we never even thought of! He was fantastic!

Great combination of sights to see without feeling rushed - The three areas we visited on this tour were all incredible. The highlight for me was the white cliffs. The short hike had amazing views and we had enough time to relax on the cliffs. Canterbury is historically fascinating.

Great - All of the stops were well worth the trip and the driver, David, was very well informed. I thoroughly enjoyed his knowledge of English history.

Can't and fover - He gave a lot of information and enjoyable say.
The most uncomfortable part was the seating. We were on the last row with a couple that were large. Very uncomfortable ride. They should not be so full

Worthwhile tour - Highlight was the walk along the white cliffs of Dover. But the visit to the Cathedral was great as well. The van was very comfortable and the ride offered good views of the countryside,

Tour guide horrible. - Since I booked a tour with a tour guide, I didn’t expect to be “dumped” in Canterbury to explore the city on my own. I thought the tour guide would take us around the city to the historical places with some narrative. But no, we were dropped off for 2 hours to roam by ourselves. Same thing happened in Deal which wasn’t as bad since it was our lunch spot and also a beach town. The Cliffs of White Dover we were told to follow the trail to this one spot , take a picture and return. In all reality we probably would have had more time to walk farther on the trail and back in the time that we ended up having. I was very disappointed.
