The stunning white chalk cliffs of Dover that face France and its secret tunnels from WWII—plus the charms of nearby Canterbury and its stunning cathedral (the oldest in England)—make for fascinating visit. Steeped in tradition, but is also a modern and vibrant city
Known as the gateway of England, Dover welcomes millions of visitors from all over the globe each year in its role as the ferry capital of the world and the second busiest cruise port in the UK. The White Cliffs Country has a rich heritage. Within the walls of the town’s iconic castle, over 2,000 years of history waits to be explored, whilst the town’s museum is home to the Dover Bronze Age Boat, the world’s oldest known seagoing vessel. The town’s cliffs that are a welcome sight for today's cross-channel travellers also served as the control centre for the Dunkirk evacuation in 1940.
