We took this tour on Sat Oct 19 to avoid the Sunday services. Our guide and driver, Sarah and Owen, were fantastic…Personable and informative and really enjoyed talking with them. The sights were as expected. The Dover Castle was impressive both the ancient as well as the WWII tunnels. The White Cliffs were OK. Not the best view with the time we had, but as expected when reservation made. To really see the cliffs, you need time to get down to the beach or take a boat ride across the channel. Do not take this tour for anything, but a cursory look at the cliffs. Finally, the Canterbury Cathedral was impressive despite the scaffolding. Unfortunately, we got to the Cathedral just in time for evensong, so unless planning for hour long evensong (which we chose not to) we could not see the main part of the altar and tower. HINDSIGHT says Canterbury first…not a complaint, just an observation. Weather was tolerable at all stops, so who knows. The tour met our expectations.

Excellent Tour Experience

This tour was very interesting and picturesque. The tour guide made the trip fun with his different stories of old sayings and how they originated. We had more than enough time to look around at the 3 different stops. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in touring Dover Castle especially.

Canterbury Cathedral was OK if you like scaffolding. Dover Castle was closed as it was too windy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Puzzled by this decision, it's stood for years and can't take a windy day? Maybe close the battlements off but the underground tunnels and the castle insides????? Couldn't get to see the cliffs for the same reason. They managed to get us into Leeds Castle which was a bonus but not what was booked. The weather is obviously outside of the tour's control as was English Heritage closing the castle, so I can't fault Anderson Tours. Just a shame when you come from Oz to see something specific, pay for a tour and can't get what you've paid for. As they say "Sh*t happens!"
