Throughout the day we travel through pretty Kent villages including Pluckley, the setting for the filming of The Darling Buds of May.

Saturday

Enjoy the best of the Kent Coast as we first travel to Margate, the original seaside destination. We continue to Ramsgate, where we include a visit to the historic Ramsgate Tunnels, a huge and cavernous subterranean world of underground tunnels that were built to hide people during the blitz in World War II. A marvel of engineering, that we will discover on our Guided Tour. There are also a series of wartime reconstructions including an abandoned train station and an underground bunker. From here, we continue to Deal, possibly the prettiest seaside town in Kent.

Next, we head for nearby Chatham, where we visit the fascinating Historic Naval Dockyard, a vast treasure trove of all things nautical.
