    Dover Castle was amazing, it was everything I expected and so much more. I would recommend it to everyone.

    Entrance tickets only. Excellent castle to tour. Love Viator. Plan on about 4 hours to see everything.

    Dover Castle well worth seeing!

    There are many things to do and see on this 80 + acres. Best if you can spend at least 2-3 hours so you don't miss out on the fantastic history of this beautiful castle.

    Blarney Castle Ride and Entry

    This was an OK deal even though there is no tour. The ticket gives you a bus ride to the Castle and admission fee. It's a few euros more than the public bus, but you get a nice ride. If you are not timebound, the public bus may be a better option.

    Failed tour. Unable to cancel.

    I had to return home to the USA earlier than expected so I was not able to go to Dover. This tour operator would not provide a refund enough though I cancelled more than 24 hours before I was scheduled to go to Dover. I thought all tours could be cancelled on that basis. Very disappointing.

    Day out

    A lovely day to wander around Dover Castle and grounds. The tunnels, although interesting, were mainly seeing video footage, so not really worth the queue.

    We spent over 6 hours here. You will not be disappointed. Inside the castle the docents are waiting to share their knowledge on each room of the castle. Many areas are decorated in the period and take you pack to that era. The grounds are beautiful. The WWII tunnels are a must, For me, being a WWII enthusiast this was a highlight for me.

    An excellent and interesting excursion. A little bit of queueing for the tunnels, but worth the wait.
