I am a professional Blue Badge Tour Guide qualified to guide throughout the whole of London and South East England providing quality private tours customized to what you want to see and do. As a holder of the coveted Blue Badge, I am one of the privileged few permitted to guide within the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Canterbury Cathedral, Windsor Castle and many other historic royal palaces. My specialties include London highlights - just right for first timers in the capital, and for those returning to London, the hidden gems. My personal favourites include Tudor Royalty in South East England especially the life and times of King Henry VIII from Hampton Court Palace to Hever Castle; Canterbury and its cathedral, shore excursions from Dover and the glorious gardens of England. It's the region's social history that really excites me - how people lived in earlier times, the land and cityscapes they developed and the contrasts with today's lifestyles. Bringing these to life is a passion and a privilege. I have combined my earlier career experiences with my best-loved interests to present the delights of the region in an entertaining & informative style.

Overview of your Dover tour

A medieval gem of the Cinque ports - this ancient town still has cobbled streets and beautifully preserved historic houses from medieval fourteenth century, Tudor and Georgian times. The ideal place to dip back into England's past from royalty to fisherfolk. Dawn, your guide will provide an entertaining & informative commentary on a walk through the town. A great chance to try a real English Cream Tea, good also for smugglers tales and ghosts! Larger groups can be priced upon request

Your Dover tour itinerary

You are met by your guide and driven through some of the beautiful Kent and Sussex countryside to Rye. Depending on how long you wish your tour to be, there may be time to stop in at a few local medieval churches, a vineyard (yes really, in England and very successful too!), castles or sea defences. At the end of your tour you will be returned to the Cruise Terminal or transferred to your hotel.
