Itinerary
Day 1 - Arrival
After joining the coach, we make our way to our hotel and check in.
Day 2 - Rye & Hastings
This morning, we head to the ancient hilltop town of Rye. With its historic charm and crooked Tudor buildings, it's a lovely place to visit. Stroll along the sloping lanes lined with cosy pubs and discover secret passages that smugglers once favoured or visit St. Mary's Church tower.
Next, we visit the coastal town of Hastings, part of the famous 1066 Country. Here we find the remains of the first castle built by William the Conqueror and wander through the preserved Old Town with its winding narrow streets.
Day 3 - Canterbury
We head to the beautiful city of Canterbury on our included excursion, with its quaint cobbled lanes, timber-framed buildings and medieval city walls. It is also home to the oldest cathedral in England, dating back to Norman times. In addition to the cathedral, visitors can explore the ruins of St. Augustine's Abbey and St. Martin's Church.
