Both my husband and I loved this tour, we saw beautiful places calmly and without having to do everything in a hurry. Our guide Eva was very good: competent, friendly and very helpful. The driver Daniel is also good. I highly recommend this tour, we loved the places visited: the cliffs of Dover in particular are spectacular. Very satisfied with the day

Our tour was coordinated by Anderson Tours of London. They were truly EXCEPTIONAL! Our tour guide, Nick was MAGNIFICENT and spent the day educating us about the history and culture of the British. He was HIGH-ENERGY and very computed to making this a spectacular day for us. Our driver, Mario, was by comparison extremely reserved and quiet. Nevertheless, he was always polite and professional. The two of them made for a wonderful tandem & delivered EXCELLENT service. My wife and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND any tour organized by Anderson tours & even more so if Nick is your guide!! What a spectacular ALL day tour of England!!! 5-stars

The tour was great. The guide gave us historic overview and explained each site then we got to explore on our own. With Dover Castle I skipped the underground tour to have enough time to enjoy the main castle, the church, the Roman lighthouse and the spectacular views. Canterbury cathedral was also amazing. This was a great way to see a lot of spectacular historic sites
Great Day Out!

Very interesting tour with enough time at each stop to enjoy it. At Dover Castle we were able to go on the Secret War Tunnels tour, as well as tour the main castle. We had plenty of time at the cliffs to get plenty of great pictures and grab lunch. We had time in Canterbury to tour the cathedral, visit beautiful gardens nearby, and tour the town with a stop for gelato. Our tour guide was very informative, helpful, and funny. I would recommend this tour for anyone, families included, who is mobile, because there is plenty of walking with hills and stairs. It was a very fun day!
Poor experience, not a “guided” tour, rather it’s mostly transportation and entry tickets.

The sites were amazing. It was a very small coach. But the reason for the low rating outs it wasn’t a guided tour as expected or s as usual with other Viator tours. It was escorted, I.e. the “guide” walked us to the 3 locations, gave us some tips and the said “ see you back at the coach”. E we go on these tours not for transportation, but local knowledge. Very unhappy with this one. Also, we had no way to reach our Guide. We had decided to stay for dinner and take the train back on our own. We couldn’t reach him. It was very difficult to get a hold of anybody at Vidor. We tried the tour Operator chat multiple times and nobody answered finally we called Support who were able to reach our driver.
Andy was great very...

We have a perfect. The weather worked out to be perfect as well. Our guide Eva was charming, entertaining and informative. She took the car to ask each traveler where they were fun and gave everyone direct attention. It was so perfect that I proposed to my fiancé at the top of Dover castle. It was truly a magical day.
