Ben, our guide, explained everything in great detail, interestingly and informatively, and in a way that was easy to understand, even for those whose English wasn't perfect – we learned a tremendous amount. 10 out of 10 :)★

Daisy and Ash were absolutely incredible tour guides! I felt completely safe and comfortable asking questions, and they were always informative and engaging. The history shared throughout the tour was fascinating, and I loved the thoughtful touch of introducing songs connected to the places we visited. Overall, this was an amazing experience that was absolutely worth it, made even better by such fantastic guides.★

Reviews: Official Canterbury Guided Walking Tour - 14.00 Tour
Guest User2025-12-23
We had a brilliant 90‑minute guided tour of Canterbury with Will, who was extremely knowledgeable and engaging throughout. Despite the awful wet weather, he kept the group’s spirits up and delivered a fascinating walk through the city’s rich history, hidden corners, and iconic landmarks.
Will’s storytelling brought Canterbury to life, and we learned so much more than we ever would have on our own. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city—rain or shine!★
