Canterbury Private 2 Hour Walking Tour with Blue Badge Guide
Things to know
About the Activity
Canterbury is steeped in history. The city can trace its roots back to the Celtic Tribe, the Cantiaci, who were here before the Romans. From the start of the Roman occupation in the 1st Century, to the arrival of the Papal emissary Augustine in 597AD, to the murder of Thomas Becket in 1170, to the dissolution of the monasteries by King Henry VIII, to the bombings of World War 2 - we will show you the many facets of this ancient, beautiful & intriguing city! This is a private walking tour that will show you the most important & interesting parts of the city of Canterbury. We can begin & end our tour at a location of your choosing (the Old Buttermarket is usually the most convenient) & we can build the tour around your interests. Alternatively, we can suggest a tour that covers the most interesting & historical parts of the city.2 hours
