Leeds Castle - The loveliest castle in the world, set in the middle of a lake and surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, Leeds Castle became known as Lady’s Castle, because of the number of Queens of England who lived there. It is also renowned for its unique museum of dog collars.
Canterbury and its Cathedral - Canterbury is England’s ecclesiastical capital, where St. Thomas Beckett, then Archbishop of Canterbury, was murdered in 1170. Beckett’s Shrine in the Cathedral became the goal of the ‘Canterbury Pilgrims’ and the town prospered on this early form of tourism.
The White Cliffs of Dover - Finally to Dover, renowned for its great stretch of white chalk cliffs and castle. We may even see the coast of France. We return to London travelling past the Channel Tunnel entrance.
The tour guide will explain much about the history of the UK whilst travelling through the countryside in the Luxury Coaches.
