About this activity

Canterbury Guided Tours provide entertaining 90-minute tours for visitors to the historic city of Canterbury, led by fully qualified Green Badge Guides.

We are proud to be the official city walking tour, and the only tour to include the grounds of the majestic Cathedral.

Join us for a journey back in time through the narrow medieval lanes, past pilgrim inns and tudor houses, through the iconic Christ Church Gate and into the Cathedral Precincts. Discover how the city has evolved over the years and the stories of the many colourful characters who have lived in or visited the city, from St Augustine, Becket and Chaucer to Marlowe and Dickens.
