Kent, the Garden of England, welcomes you on a scenic panoramic drive to Leeds.
You will visit Leeds Castle — the fairy tale home of six English queens and the playground of Henry VIII. Follow a tree-lined stream through the estate and venture out onto the two islands on which the castle lies.
Take a self-guided tour through the interior, where docents are stationed throughout the castle to answer your many questions. The restored rooms boast stunning tapestries, paintings and furnishings.
Return to Dover via the picturesque villages of Lenham and Ashford, and passing Dover Castle.
