Explore Canterbury

Join us for a wonderful day exploring the medieval streets and historic timber-framed houses in beautiful Canterbury, one of the UK’s oldest cities. Together we will discover the secrets and stories of Canterbury Cathedral, a world famous UNESCO World Heritage site, and hear about the pivotal moments in British history it has witnessed from an expert guide who will be leading a tour.

Following our tour of the cathedral we’ll head to a traditional British pub to enjoy a relaxing lunch together.

We’ll end our day with a short walk around the city, soaking up the history and spotting more of its many historic landmarks before returning to the cathedral once more to experience evensong.
