Best Canterbury Tours & Trips
The ancient English town along the Stour River is home to the oldest cathedral in England and dates back to prehistoric times. The Kent city's Canterbury Cathedral was a destination for Christian pilgramages after the 1170 murder of Saint Thomas Becket and was an inspiration for the Geoffrey Chaucer book "The Canterbury Tales." In addition to the Canterbury Cathedral, the remains of St. Augustine's Abbey and St. Martin's Church are a United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Site.

I cannot say enough good things about this tour! Visiting Prague Castle, the Swarovski worlds, and Versailles in one trip was incredible. The guides were local experts who brought history to life. The ferries and transfers were all smooth. What impressed me most was the service level.

Hotels were nice and in convenient spots. Rooms were clean, Wi-Fi worked, and staff were friendly. Loved staying close to the main sights in Florence and Paris.

A whirlwind adventure! From the colorful tiles of Lisbon to the bustling streets of London, every day brought something new. The platform's booking process was user-friendly, and I received my vouchers instantly. The guided tour in Madrid was fantastic, especially the Retiro Park stop. Crossing the channel by ferry was a unique experience. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars for accommodation is that the Paris hotel was quite far out, but the transport provided made up for it.
