    The best in Kent!!

    Kathryn_L, Sep 2025
    Anthony showed us so many beautiful places in Kent, and explained so much history. We were able to see so much more than on other tours, and Anthony found a delightful pub for lunch. I’d take this tour again!

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Thank you for your review Kathyrn, that's really appreciated. It was so lovely to meet you, Steve, Jan and Marty. I really hope that we may meet again when you are next in the UK. If you ever need any help or advice when it comes to your research, please feel free to ask. All best wishes, Anthony

    A Fantastic Excursion – Highly Recommended!

    John_V, Aug 2025
    This was a fantastic excursion and I highly recommend it. Anthony is a wonderful guide — knowledgeable, personable, and humorous. It was a full day packed with interesting sites, rich historical context, and breathtaking panoramic views. Plus, a tasty (optional) lunch in a authentic English pub. An unforgettable experience from start to finish!

    Response from Host, Aug 2025

    Thank you so much for your lovely review John - that's really kind of you. You were a terrific group and a lot of fun to take around to some of my favourite places in Kent. I hope that you are having a terrific time on your cruise!

    Best Tour and Guide in Kent

    Jeffrey_B, Aug 2025
    We had a fabulous day with Anthony exploring the countryside around Kent and Canterbury. It was a pleasure to spend time with such a knowledgeable guide. His knowledge of the area and history adds to the beauty of the area. He went out of his way to make sure that we were able to see everything on our list and took us to places that the big tour buses could never get to. Thanks again for a fantastic day.

    Response from Host, Aug 2025

    Thank you so much for your lovely review Jeff - it was so kind of you to respond in this way. I have to say, it was such a pleasure to meet you all and show you something of the place in which I live. The Pig at Bridge was a particular delight, especially with the Head Gardener showing us around the grounds under cultivation! Lastly, thank you also for taking some beautiful photos of the places visited on tour and letting me share them with others. They were incredible. Enjoy the rest of your cruise and please give my best wishes to your wife and the Martins. :)
