🟡🚶‍♂️ Day Trip & Hike: Canterbury City, Riverside & Countryside

Join us for the perfect Sunday escape blending ancient British history with a scenic riverside hike! We will walk in the footsteps of medieval pilgrims, explore Roman-built city walls, and immerse ourselves in Kent's beautiful countryside. On this trip, you will experience the historic charm of Canterbury's cobbled streets, timber-framed houses, and the iconic Canterbury Cathedral founded in 597 A.D. We will then escape into nature along a peaceful trail following the beautiful River Stour and winding through a local nature reserve.
