It was a really beautiful trip. Both the guides, the one who picked us up from the London bridge station and Kevin were really wonderful. Kevin gave a lot of information through out the tour. The lunch stop on a farm was really pretty too. The coach was very comfortable. The trip started and ended right on time. Highly recommended. Beautifully organised.

Our guide (Kevin) was incredible! This trip was even better than I expected. I only thought we’d see the Seven Sisters but we actually stopped at several locations (including 2 with incredible views of the Seven Sisters). Kevin had lots of stories to tell and was very nice! I has a great day, totally worth it.

Kevin, our guide, is wonderful. I learned a lot during the trip. He has so many interesting stories to tell. He also took us to see an emu and feed him!!!! The tour is wonderful and will definitely recommend it.

Adam was an excellent guide. We thoroughly enjoyed the walk along White Cliffs beach and the visit to the farm to try the local food.

Our guide Kevin was excellent. He knew all about the area and made the day interesting.
