    We recently took the Blue-Roads Kent: Garden of England tour. We had a wonderful time traveling the week seeing beautiful gardens, historic castles and coastal vistas in Kent. Our guide Philippa and our driver Steve were both outstanding. Philippa is very knowledgeable and provided excellent commentary throughout our travels as well as helpful tips on what to see and where to eat at each stop. Steve expertly navigated us safely to our destinations each day. Both made a true difference to the quality of our experience on this tour! We also enjoyed the unique accommodations, with the cosy Mermaid Inn in Rye being a favourite. We highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in seeing a beautiful corner of England rich in history and culture.

    Very good submersion into the region. Great guide/leader , driver, coach, and hotels. Could have had a bit less search for back roads in favor of more time at key sites and cities.
