Your private tour begins with a warm welcome at the Port of Dover, where your pre-booked transportation awaits. Choose from a comfortable MPV, a classic London Black Cab, or a spacious 16-seater minicoach, perfectly suited to your group's size and needs.

We'll start with a scenic walk along the iconic White Cliffs of Dover, offering breathtaking views of the English Channel and, on a clear day, the French coast. We'll capture memorable photos and appreciate the natural beauty of this famous landmark.

Dover Castle

Next, we explore Dover Castle, a fortress with origins stretching back to Roman times, evidenced by the still-standing Pharos lighthouse. Expanded significantly by Henry II in the 12th century, the castle became a powerful symbol of his authority, a deliberate display of power to France. Its strategic location overlooking the Channel made it vital for defense. We'll also explore the castle's network of underground tunnels, crucial during World War II, highlighting its enduring strategic importance.

Chartwell

Visitors can explore the rooms where Churchill lived and worked, filled with personal belongings, books, and mementos that offer insight into his multifaceted personality. The house is set within beautiful gardens, where visitors can stroll through the rose garden designed by Lady Churchill, admire the views over the surrounding countryside, and even see the studio where Churchill pursued his passion for painting. A tour of Chartwell is a must for anyone interested in history, politics, or simply experiencing the charm of a quintessential English country house.

Hever Castle

A tour of Hever Castle & Gardens is a journey through centuries of history, from its origins as a medieval moated castle to its ownership by Anne Boleyn's family and later, William Waldorf Astor. Inside, visitors can explore the richly furnished rooms, including Anne's childhood home and the impressive collection of Tudor portraits. Outside, the award-winning gardens offer a diverse range of landscapes, from the formal Italian Garden and the tranquil lake to the yew maze and the fascinating collection of miniature models in the Model Railway Village.
