We will curate the day bespoke around your needs and wishes rather than shoehorn you in like sardines where you may see little more than the freeway!
After your free-time in Canterbury, a city that has seen Christian Pilgrims since 1170 we drive through the stunning Stour Valley past vineyards, bluebell woods, and the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty that is the Kentish Downs. We stop for photographs at the start of villages then collect you at the further end often where you will walk downhill.
The 'Garden of England' reveals bucolic rolling countryside past quintessential 'chocolate box' cottages and ancient churches until we reach Leeds Castle, often described as 'The most beautiful in the world'.
