Canterbury Dover Castle and White Cliff Private Tour with Passes

Discover a day out 1,400 years in the making. England's First Cathedral Founded by St Augustine in 597 AD, Canterbury Cathedral is a unique place of worship, a major pilgrimage destination, a masterpiece of art and architecture, and one of the UK's most-visited historic sites. Often referred to as ‘England in stone', the Cathedral has been at the centre of momentous events and upheavals. It is the Mother Church of the worldwide Anglican Communion, seat of the Archbishop of Canterbury, UNESCO World Heritage Site, and resting place of royalty and saints. Explore the markings of builders, staff and visitors. The alterations to architecture show the development of the church, the masons marks show where they labored, and the markings made by visitors, scratches of ‘medieval graffiti’, give some insight to those that have walked this way before, leaving an anonymous notation in history.

Formed by ice-age floods, the cliffs are up to 110 metres high (350 feet) and run east and west from Dover in Kent, stretching 8 miles in total. The Strait of Dover is the shortest distance between England and France (a little under 21 miles) and on a clear day you can see the French coast from the Cliffs.

Dover Castle is a medieval castle in Dover, Kent, England and is Grade I listed. It was founded in the 11th century and has been described as the "Key to England" due to its defensive significance throughout history. Dover Castle is one of the largest castles in England, proudly standing on top of the White Cliffs, overlooking busy port of Dover. The castle guards the shortest crossing point to continental Europe. (It is only 21 miles (34 km) between Dover and France.)
