For an overview of the Dover coast and time in Canterbury, this is the tour to take. Matt, our driver and guide, was very knowledgeable. We especially enjoyed the Battle of Britain Memorial, Canterbury Cathedral, and the small walk on the top of the cliffs. Matt brought a number of items related to the places we were going. We enjoyed feeling the material that makes the Dover cliffs white and loved the ham and cheese sandwich he brought for our photos in front of the Ham and Sandwich road signs. Our last stop was at a seaside town where we had the best ever fish & chips. This all day tour was in a Mercedes minivan and was comfortable. The small group size was a plus. We were picked up at the cruise pier in Dover and returned in plenty of time to make the all aboard call for the cruise ship. We had some trouble finding the correct minivan when we came off the ship because there were so many tours leaving at the same time and several Britannia minibuses in different locations. However, the friendly Britannia staff at the pier went out of their way to get us to the right location. Kudos to them. We were very pleased with Britannia, our tour, and guide. We would recommend this tour to our friends.

The experience was great and we saw a lot of amazing sights. The only star taken off was because we got on the cruise ship only 6 minutes before all aboard so we were stressed for about the last 45 minutes of the tour.

Matt is great!!! First off he adjusted the tour to accommodate when our ship we be in port. He went out of his way to show us. so much of the areas, things you wouldn’t be able to access on a big bus. He showed us samples of the areas we went to, and had all kinds of information on his lap top available about the areas visited if we were curious. Lastly thoughtful, of every tour I had go e one, he had a charge cord for my phone as it got very low from all the pictures I was taking. Arguably the Best tour we took.

Love the commentary provided by Matt. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about sharing his knowledge of the area. We also loved the smaller bus and tour group. Excellent driving as well!!

Our tour guide, Matt, did a remarkable job giving us the details and history of each location we visited. We felt like we were a part of the history and our surroundings which made for a great destination tour. Because it was a Sunday, we weren't able to get into Canterbury Cathedral and we also missed a stop in Sandwich because of a Medieval Festival (which would have been a nice addition), but we did get time at the iconic Ham/Sandwich road marker and saw some beautiful countryside. I personally would have either liked more time in the beach town of Deal to actually get time for a relaxing lunch, or eliminate that stop to spend more time along the way. All in all, Matt did a fabulous job giving us the key highlights, and I'd definitely recommend this tour to others.
