Leeds Castle or Dover Castle, Canterbury and White Cliffs of Dover Private Car Tour

10-hour private executive car tour to Leeds Castle, Canterbury and white cliffs of Dover

Leeds Castle was once described as ‘the loveliest castle in the world’. On this tour, you can admire its fairy-tale towers, moat and stunning gardens. You will continue on to the cathedral city of Canterbury, famous for its medieval town centre with cobbled streets and timber-framed houses. Finally, you’ll reach the iconic white cliffs of Dover.

  • Leeds Castle has been the private property of six of England’s medieval queens, a palace used by Henry VIII and his first wife Catherine of Aragon and an elegant early 20th century retreat for the influential and famous. It is now a world-class visitor attraction.
  • Enjoy this lovely castle’s award-winning gardens, falconry, live shows, and lose yourself in its yew-tree maze.
  • Admire the Gothic architecture and remarkable stained-glass windows of Canterbury Cathedral, one of England’s oldest Christian structures.
  • Travel back in time as you walk within Canterbury’s centennial walls and cobbled streets
  • Visit the iconic white cliffs of Dover, and see the first and last glimpse of England that sailors of this maritime nation cherished during their naval journeys.

Canterbury or Leeds Castle can be replaced by a visit to Dover Castle, England’s largest military fortress, which was crucial in defending the island during WW1 and WW2. Military enthusiasts will enjoy exploring its wartime tunnels, including those from which the Dunkirk evacuation was commanded.
