A long and interesting tour of Kent to and from London. - Our guide, Richard, possesses the knowledge and capability to keep us fully informed of the history, people, structures, and customers of the Kent and London area. The Leeds castle is unique in the fact that unlike most old castles it was recently inhabited ( by a wealthy socialite who in keeping with the original design further embellished and maintained this gem of a castle. The Canterbury cathedral is huge and the focus of pilgrimages in the past. This tour covered a large area, and a large variety of very interesting sites. With the guides help we really enjoyed ourselves and learned a lot. Very well worth the investment of time and money.

Great guide and fun day! - Nicolas was an awesome guide. Very informative and had a fun personality. It wasn't just your typical guide who had the tour rehearsed. Our group had 10 guest and we really enjoyed our trip. I highly recommend doing this and request Nicholas as a guide.

Day trip from London to Kent - This was an amazing day trip from London. Our small group had 12 people from various English-speaking countries. Our guide, Andrew, gave us a great explanation of the sights we passed as we traveled through London down to Kent. We started with an early-entry tour of Leeds castle and had enough free time to explore the gardens on our own. Then we stopped at the Battle of Britain Memorial where we had wonderful views of the White Cliffs of Dover. We passed through Dover on our way to Canterbury. We had plenty of free time to tour the cathedral and the town. On our way back to London, we walked through Greenwich and boarded a boat that took us under the Tower Bridge. It was a wonderful day, and Andrew was the perfect guide. Highly recommend

Would recommend - James and Henry did a great job. The tour was lovely. Really enjoyed learning all the history and seeing each place. Need more time at Leeds Castle to see it all; only had time to quickly see the castle, but no time for gardens. Would be amazing to see the Cliffs of Dover in other spots. Overall we loved the tour and would recommend it.
