Top Dover Tours, Tickets & Activities

An outstanding tour host by an outstanding guide, Anthony, in full command of the subject matter. Highly recommended

Cannot say enough good things about this tour but if a trip to Dover is in your travel plans then this is a great way to see not only the key sights but also peek behind the curtains by visiting several charming small picture post card villages. Our guide, Anthony, gave us a thorough back on each of our stops along the way. Highly, highly recommended.

Absolutely wonderful tour of the gorgeous lands in Kent!! Anthony was super knowledgeable, kind, hilarious and accommodating - all the best things a guide could be. We really felt like we received a deep dive into the history of the area without ever feeling uninterested. Highly recommend for all and hope to come back again soon!

We travelled in an ultra-comfortable Mercedes luxury van, which made all the difference. We got to see the White Cliffs of Dover from the beach — no tour bus will ever get you to this spot.Leeds Castle is the most unique and history-filled castle I have ever visited, and the onsite food was very good — they even have cocktails on the lunch menu.One afternoon is not enough time for this tour. Give yourself the extra day if you can. And whatever you do, don't book the bus option — the private van makes the experience.

The driver was a few minutes late due to traffic in town. He more than made it up by getting us there in a very timely manner. The car was clean and the driver was friendly. Would definitely use this service again.

Seeing where the enemy planes came from, seeing the pilots riding from the barracks to where they waited to scramble to their planes, how they fought, how some died, seeing where they went to drink and where some are buried is truly a Battle of Britain (BoB) Experience. As advertised, this tour totally delivers and is well worth the cost. I highly recommend this tour.This tour is a great way to learn about the BoB in a day and especially about the pilots who fought, their stories (for example, how one pilot developed a manoeuvre where he could dive in and attack 3 enemy planes during one pass, Roger whose character was in the movie "the Great Escape", etc), what they did and for some, how they were killed. This included the stories of the 7 pilots at the "Spirit of The Few" Monument and some of the pilots whose plane's wreckage pieces are on display in the museum and at the memorial. Hearing their stories saved having to do a lot of reading.In addition to the pilot stories, I really liked everywhere we stopped; the gun emplacement at St Martin's Battery, BoB Memorial, Hawkinge Fighter Station, BoB Museum and the Commonwealth Cemetery (here both RAF and Germain pilots are buried). I really enjoyed the stop for a drink at the Inn where pilots went for a drink. At the BoB Museum, Anthony highlighted some of the more interesting things and their stories. There was so much to see here that I could have spent a whole day here. As an added touch we passed by and saw places related to the 1969 movie "Battle of Britain".Photos at the BoB museum are not allowed but through Anthony, our guide, we got permission to take pictures with the outside exhibits. Photos are not allowed to respect the pilots whose pieces of their planes are on display. Anthony was willing to take our photos throughout the tour. During our tour, Anthony showed us other things along the way which included stopping at "The Pig" where Led Zeppelin once played and pointing out where "Ian Flemming" once lived and the place where a young Mozart once performed.Our day concluded with a walking tour of Canterbury which I thought was very well done and interesting. It was nice to have lunch at the oldest Inn in Canterbury and to see the Inn where the 4 knights had a drink before going to the Canterbury Cathedral and killing Tomas Beckett.Overall I felt that this tour was very "professional". It was delivered by a very knowledgeable guide who spoke clearly and whose narration was easy to understand. It included wearing good over the ear earsets (not earbuds) and being shown pictures from a binder to further explain things we were being told. Anthony made sure we saw everything we wanted before moving on. It was a nice paced tour where one didn't feel rushed. We rode in a very comfortable (cool) and roomy vehicle.Lastly, I felt that our guide Anthony was truly dedicated and extremely passionate about telling the stories of the lives of those "FEW" who fought in the Battle of Britain and Canterbury.Thank you Anthony for a "WONDERFUL", comprehensive, fact filled day and for the "Battle of Britain" experience. As advertised, this tour totally delivers and is well worth the cost. I highly recommend this tour. Those "FEW" live on. Mega Kudos.

Rui was an excellent driver with a comfortable car for our long ride from the cruise port to Heathrow Airport. He was prompt and courteous. Highly recommend!

This was our first time using Mini-Cab and it was wonderful! The company communicated clearly and quickly! The driver was so professional and kind!

This was a fantastic experience. Anthony absolutely made this day great, not only with his knowledge of the subject matter but also with how easy he made the day. As mentioned Anthony is very knowledgeable about the subject matter and brings a very human perspective to this with commentary about specific pilots and their lives and experiences. This allowed us to get a real sense of what it would have been like at the time for the people of Britain but particularly what it was like for the pilots and the support crews. The locations visited were well selected to provide a good insight into the nature of the Battle of Britain. We had plenty of time at each of the locations and never felt rushed. Anthony was very flexible with some of the places we visited including an amazing hotel that we had the opportunity to see (and hopefully stay in in the future!). The tour was tailored to our requirements and Anthony was very helpful picking us up from our hotel and dropping us to the train station. The conversation was very pleasant whilst enroute to the different locations and several excellent book recommendations were made. At the end of the tour Anthony provided us with a list of the places we had visited and was very helpful and provided some suggestions for places to visit in our future travels to the Cotswalds. Can’t thank Anthony enough for such a memorable day. Highly recommended!

Well worth the price and time. Wonderful experience. Learned a lot! Guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Beautiful scenery. Great day trip from London.

The driver was very efficient and helpful. He made nice conversation during our drive. He communicated with us prior to pickup.

The driver was very professional and kind. A good car and a safe trip. Nice trip . We would like the same driver to go black to Gatwick next twesday.

Tanya was an absolutely great guide. She shared so much information: history, everyday life, and more!!! But it wasn’t too much, it was just right. We saw a bit of everything, countryside, little towns/villages, and historic landmarks. The tea was delightful! All in all a 5 star day!! We’d request her as a guide anytime! Thanks!!

Anthony showed us so many beautiful places in Kent, and explained so much history. We were able to see so much more than on other tours, and Anthony found a delightful pub for lunch. I’d take this tour again!

If you have a boat to catch in Dover, I fully recommend sneaking this tour in beforehand. Tanya shared her vast knowledge of the area in a fun and engaging way and went out of her way to accommodate our travel plans. Very enjoyable all round.

A stress free way to get to LHR after an early morning debarkation. On time and very accommodating in every way.
