Deal & Sandwich on Your Own

The Charming Towns of Kent Set out to discover two historic towns, from the seaside streets of Deal to medieval Sandwich. Board your motor coach and drive through the Kent countryside to Deal, a seaside town overlooking the English Channel with an enduring maritime legacy. Here, you may stroll the waterfront, browse shops and explore at your own pace before continuing to Sandwich. Once among England’s leading ports, Sandwich prospered through trade with continental Europe as a member of the Cinque Ports confederation, which supplied ships and sailors to the Crown. As the coastline gradually receded, the town was left largely untouched by later development. Explore its streets independently and view medieval churches, timber-framed houses and centuries-old streetscapes that preserve a remarkable record of medieval England before returning to your ship. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
