This service is available on all dates when Princess, Carnival or Holland America cruise ships are visiting Dover.

Itinerary

  • The White Cliffs of Dover (Pass By)

    You’ll drive above the famous White Cliffs and head into the county of Kent, an agricultural area that feeds London from its orchards, hop fields and vineyards. Enjoy the lovely views as you make the short, 45-minute journey to Canterbury, the seat of English Christianity since 597 AD.

  • Canterbury Cathedral

    Listen to your guide regale stories about the history of the town and cathedral. You’ll hear medieval tales from Canterbury writers, Geoffrey Chaucer and Christopher Marlowe, as well as stories of the Reformation and the Blitz. Then, enjoy some free time exploring the town on your own and visiting Canterbury Cathedral if you wish (own expense) After two hours in Canterbury, we'll travel over the Weald of Kent – a high ridge – and head down to Leeds Castle.

    2 hours

  • Leeds Castle

    Famously referred to as 'the loveliest castle in the world' and founded in the 9th century, Leeds Castle is best known as a palace for numerous queens of England. Along the way, hear fascinating commentary from your guide about the monarchs and the fate that befell them! Spend three hours at the beautiful castle, set on two islands on a lake, and explore its remarkable interior as well as the grounds and gardens with your guide. Admire rooms such as the library and banquet hall, and be amazed by the one-of-a-kind museum of ornate dog collars! Outdoors, walk through the complicated maze and enjoy the grotto and water features. If you wish, dine on a leisurely lunch in one of the cafés or restaurants overlooking the grounds (own expense).

Great excursion and way to get to London

Published on Aug, 2024

Canterbury was the best of the two. I would give 4.5 if I could. Should spend more time there and add another hour. Did not get to see everything after taking the time to tour the cathedral. The time in Leeds should be shortened, although beautiful, was done touring with time to spare. Tour guide was awesome!! Bus driver into London was friendly and information. Highly recommend just make sure to go faster through the cathedral for more town views. My group all felt the same reverse time allowed in the towns.

After Cruise tour

Published on Jul, 2024

Great tour for after a cruise. Allowed for sightseeing of great places we would have overlooked had we not booked this tour. Picked up right at the pier after saying so long to our cruise. Excellent transfer for drop off at our hotel after the tour.
