It was a very good tour, with a knowledgeable guide. But it crammed too much into one day, without enough time to really get an in-depth look at anything. It's true, you do get to see the white cliffs of Dover - as you drive past in a bus. We ended up with just 18 minutes in Greenwich before we had to get on the boat, and it was so late in the day that anything worth seeing close by the docks was closed. Leeds Castle was spectacular!

The locations were great and the price was fantastic! The tour guide was knowledgeable and cordial. The procedures for pick up at the station could have been a lot more organized, and I wish we hadn't been as rushed in some spots like Dover and Canterbury. If I had any suggestions, I'd drop Greenwich as a stated attraction at least until the ship is rebuilt and consider adding in Dover Castle as a new site.

This tour was extremely informative, with lots of picture possibilities for the photographers. We had a great tour guide.

We enjoyed the trip. My only wish is that we had more time to spend at Leeds Castle ground and more so in Greenwich, we were hoping to walk around a little bit more but time did not permit I suppose. Excellent tour guide though.

Absolutely fantastic if we had stopped for a second near Dover Castle for a picture and had some more time on our own at Canterbury.

This tour was fabulous! Our only disappointment was that the description of the tour was not exactly what we got. We did not have lunch in a charming inn overlooking White Cliffs of Dover. We just drove by in the bus. And we did not get out of the bus in Greenwich or see any markets or get to do a walking tour. The tour was still great, but not all that we expected. Except for the two hours in Greenwich, the tour guide was very informative.

This tour is definitely worth it for first-time visitors who are looking to cram as many sites as they can into a short period of time. If I had it to do over again, I would probably skip the tour and visit the individual sites on my own in order to have more time at each place.

I was expecting the entire length of the tour to be longer. We would have spent more time in each city site. I had wanted to spend at least one hour in Dover, and a little more time in Canterbury.

The lunch at the pub in Dover was very disappointing. The cost was extravagant, and the food was terrible. We also didn't have nearly enough time in Canterbury.

This tour had the potential to be good, however our bus driver neglected to notice that he did not have the key to the emergency exit door, which made the bus unsafe. Therefore, we had to stop at a service station. This resulted in us feeling rushed for the rest of the day and missing our lunch break. The rest of the day was enjoyable but it was really hard to get our full attention back after an extremely rocky start.

I was very disappointed by this tour. The sights were great but the tour was overpriced. We thought that we would be eating lunch overlooking the white cliffs of Dover but, instead, were let off in Canterbury to find our own food. I would like to say that our guide was great when we could hear him.

The guide gave great commentary while on the trip, and there were numerous stops for breaks and time to grab bites to eat and use the restroom. Lunch, which was expected, was not provided. It was a great way to see the English countryside but a little overpriced for what was included.

I will not book this tour again. The driver did not know his way around the city to pick up other people at their hotels. He proceeded to make many wrong turns during the day.
