The cost is £20.50 per person + £50.00 for their guide fee, payable to Leeds Castle by you on the day (this would require pre booking which I can do for you).

Driving past Dover Castle to the White Cliffs of Dover. There is a 5-10 minute walk to the cliffs to get the best views and we can take a walk along the path on top of the Cliffs taking in the Magnificent views, with plenty of photo opportunities. On a clear day you can see the coast of France! Before we drive back to London, if there is time there is the opportunity to visit St Margarets Bay, a pretty little cove steeped in history of smuggling.
