Itinerary

Leeds Castle

Standing in the valley of the River Len, surrounded by verdant lawns and a lake, it appears to rise from the water in the distance, elegant and serene, and is hailed as "the most adorable castle in the world." Each morning, as the sunlight spills onto the tranquil lake, the castle seems like a queen awakened, majestic and graceful. Its unique position in the lake truly embodies the phrase, "the fair maiden is on the other side of the water."

Canterbury

The birthplace of the Church of England, a sacred site of religious spirit. Canterbury Cathedral is one of the oldest and most famous Christian buildings in England, and a pilgrimage site for devout Christians worldwide. In the right-hand corridor by the entrance is Michelangelo's "Peter," a work from when he was 23 years old, capable of moving anyone's heart. The most worthy object of veneration within the cathedral is the Becket Altar under the double-structured central dome designed by Michelangelo, where countless pilgrims repent and seek purification. Secondly, the massive, sturdy Roman columns supporting the dome seem to symbolize the steadfastness of faith.

| White Cliffs of Dover

A popular scenic spot on the south coast of England. A wide hillside is abruptly cleaved, as if by a giant axe, revealing a white cliff tens, even hundreds of meters high, with the boundless blue sea stretching out below. The scene is dreamlike! Similar white cliffs, in varying lengths, can be found along much of the south coast of England. It is said that when viewed from continental Europe, the most striking feature of England is these white cliffs, which are therefore considered a symbol of England.

Greenwich

After Dover, you'll journey south along the River Thames to Greenwich! This World Heritage town is brimming with fascinating maritime history, including the legendary Cutty Sark, once the fastest sailing ship in the world. You'll also see the magnificent Old Royal Naval College, designed by Christopher Wren. After your Greenwich visit, you'll embark on a Thames River cruise, enjoying the beautiful London cityscape, disembarking at Embankment Pier in central London at approximately 18:30. (Please note the coach will terminate in Greenwich; please remember to take your luggage with you).

Frequently Asked Questions

• (China) If I purchase a senior/student ticket, do I need to bring a valid ID on the day of the tour?

  To purchase senior or student discount tickets, you must bring your identification document on the day of the tour. Otherwise, you may be denied use of the discount ticket.

• If I'm late, can the bus and tour guide wait for me?

  No. The bus will strictly adhere to the boarding time. If you are not on time, you will be considered a "no-show," and you will either need to catch up with the group at the next attraction on your own or forfeit your tour. Please arrive at the departure point 15 minutes in advance and locate your tour group.

• Is a Chinese-speaking tour guide service guaranteed?

  Chinese-speaking guided tours are usually available during the peak tourist season in the UK, from May to September. In rare cases, the minimum number of participants may not be met the day before departure. If this happens, we will offer you a free refund, or you can choose an English-speaking tour of the same route or another Chinese-speaking guided tour that is guaranteed to run.

• Are there guided tours available at the attraction?

  Most tour guides will accompany you into the attractions and provide professional commentary. However, Windsor Castle has a special rule that tour guides are not allowed inside, so you will need to rent a multilingual audio guide upon entry.

• Is the pick-up location inside the Victoria Coach Station?

  No, the pick-up location is not inside the long-distance bus station. It's about a 10-minute walk from the station; please check the map.

• Does booking guarantee the tour will run?

  English-speaking tours on this route are guaranteed to run year-round, but Chinese-speaking tours require secondary confirmation if they are not during peak season.

• How big is the group?

  This is a bus tour, typically using buses with around 50 seats. Day tours will accept bookings until the day before departure, so it's difficult to predict the final number of participants.

• How far in advance do I need to book?

  To avoid disappointment, it's best to book as early as possible, especially during the summer holidays.

• Where do the group members come from?

  The group members come from all over the world, so this is a great opportunity to meet new friends.

• Could you please provide the phone number of the tour guide or driver?

  No, because it involves personal privacy. However, we will inform you of the emergency contact number and your booking number in the tour notification. If you have any questions, you can call the emergency number.

• Do you offer hotel pick-up and drop-off services?

  Since this is a group tour, hotel pick-up and drop-off services are not provided. However, the tour's meeting point is conveniently located in central London and near a subway station.

• Why are the meeting and dismissal locations for the tour not at the same address?

  To enrich the itinerary, we've included a Greenwich-Embankment river cruise as the final experience.

Embankment Pier is located in central London and has a convenient Underground station.
