Itinerary

Canterbury Cathedral

2 hours Admission not included

Canterbury Cathedral, in the historic city of Canterbury about 60 miles southeast of London, is one of the oldest and most famous Christian structures in England and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Founded in 597 AD by St Augustine, it is the mother church of the Anglican Communion and the seat of the Archbishop of Canterbury. The cathedral is best known as the site of Thomas Becket’s murder in 1170, which made it a major pilgrimage destination and inspired Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales. Visitors can admire its soaring Gothic architecture, medieval stained glass, the atmospheric crypt, and the peaceful cloisters.
The White Cliffs of Dover

2 hours

The White Cliffs of Dover, on England’s southeast coast, are one of Britain’s most iconic natural landmarks. Rising up to 110 metres above the English Channel, the chalk cliffs have long been a symbol of home and welcome. Managed by the National Trust, the area offers clifftop walks with sweeping views of the sea and, on clear days, the coast of France. Visitors can also explore the South Foreland Lighthouse, enjoy the fresh sea air, and spot wildlife along the grassy clifftops.
