Monday:   Canterbury & Leeds Castle   

Morning free to sightsee the cathedral city of Canterbury, dating back to 597AD, with its Roman walls encircling its medieval centre of cobbled streets and timber-framed houses. Nearby, is 900 year old Leeds Castle described as the “loveliest castle in the world”. The afternoon provides time to explore the castle with its labyrinth of rooms and 500 acres of parkland and formal gardens. Daily activities, special events and falconry display are available each day. 

Tuesday:  Rochester & Chatham Historic Dockyard

First stop is the attractive town of Rochester with its Norman castle & ancient cathedral, with curling lanes of old buildings leading to the Medway. The afternoon is spent at the most complete Dockyard of the Age of Sail in the world - a leading maritime heritage attraction, set in 80 acres with three historic warships, a working Victorian ropery, historic lifeboat collection, dockyard railway, interactive theatre, plus magnificent collections from two national museums. The historical role of Chatham Dockyard spans 400 years until its closure in 1984.
