Spending time doing what you fancy, is a key part of our tour. Consequently, some places are self-guided and 3-4 hours of free time are included on several days. We will take you to an interesting town or village and pick you up after dinner. Rest assured, there will be great choices for sightseeing, shopping, and dining. See some of the interesting places that we will visit (depending on the length of the tour).
​Brighton
This iconic resort combines elegant Regency terraces with a bohemian cultural quarter and garish seaside amusements. Eclectic buildings and museums range from the extravagant Royal Pavilion to Brighton Pier and the Old Police Cells Museum. A myriad of shops with names like Choccywoccydoodah, Castor + Pollux and Vegetarian Shoes, plus a labyrinthine jewellery quarter, can easily satisfy the inner shopper. Or simply relax in a deckchair on the famously pebbly beach. 
​Chichester
It has the feel of a prosperous Georgian country town, although its history stretches back to the Roman conquest in 43 AD. The 11th century cathedral is a striking structure, best known for its Chagall stained glass window and magnificent spire. There is a thriving artistic scene as evidenced by the Pallant Art Gallery and off-beat shops. There is plenty to see - from the Bishop's Garden to a Roman Museum and an impressive Tudor Market Cross.
Faversham
A delightful town with its historic marketplace, streets of fine old houses, and a creek that brings the sea right into the town. Its key industries - farming, brewing, fishing and gunpowder-making - have left their mark. Explore the enticing tearooms, coaching inn, alms house, interesting local shops and the largest church in England.
​
​Rye
​Rye became a Cinque Port in the 13th Century, providing maritime protection in exchange for trading privileges. A stroll around this small, genteel town will take you down cobbled streets to Lamb House (once home to writer Henry James), the medieval St Mary's Church, or Rye Castle Museum and Ypres Tower. Outside of town is Rye Nature Reserve with its mosaic of shingle, saltmarsh, and saline lagoons - a haven for bird watchers.
