My name is Anthony.
I was raised here in Kent and am fortunate enough to live within the heart of historic Canterbury. After spending many years exploring the county's beautiful country lanes and coastline, I have come to know Kent's most stunning locations and want to share the very best of these with you. After all, this is the 'Garden of England' - a county of white cliffs and gentle, green rolling hills; country lanes and quaint cottages; imposing castles and delightful country houses; village greens and country pubs; medieval churches and awe-inspiring cathedrals.
I have also got an excellent knowledge of History. I have three degrees in this subject including a doctorate from Cambridge University. It was here that I fulfilled a life-long love of this subject but also the recognition that I wanted to spend my time doing something inspirational, meaningful and fulfilling.
For me, being a guide for small private groups is an incredible privilege and a source for all these things. I love showing guests special places that are completely off the beaten track and which satisfy our innate curiosity and desire for authenticity. I love bringing to life periods of Britain’s most significant and impactful history. But unquestionably the most satisfying reward of all is providing a unique experience and a day that will live in your memory for many years to come.
