11. Canterbury Private Walking Tour with a Professional Guide
· 2 hoursDuring the middle ages, Canterbury was considered as a pilgrimage site. Canterbury Cathedral is the headquarters of the Church of England, featuring Gothic and Romanesque architecture. Explore the ancient city walls, originally built by the Romans, encircle its medieval centre with the town's narrow medieval alleyways, riverside gardens, and timber-framed houses. Take this tour to enjoy a day out in Canterbury and explore the most significant historic places, particularly the world-famous St. Augustine's Abbey, St Martin's Church, and Canterbury Castle that are included in the World Heritage Site.
22. Guided Nature Walks through Blean woods
· 2 hoursMy tours take you through semi-ancient woodland, passing historic sites and exploring the rich biodiversity of Blean Woods. Along the way, we’ll stop to discuss the plants, animals, and fungi we encounter, and I’ll teach you how to identify a few. You’ll also experience the calming benefits of forest bathing, fully immersing yourself in nature. With my background in nature guiding and environmental advising, this is a hands-on experience where you’ll get up close and personal with the wild. I keep group sizes small to ensure a personal, engaging tour—perfect for nature lovers, history buffs, and those looking to slow down and reconnect with the natural world
