Where to Go in Canterbury

Prepare to be taken back in time with a stroll through the charming streets of the Old City Canterbury. While journeying through this picture-perfect area of idyllic Tudor buildings, do not miss out on the opportunity to visit the beautiful grade two listed building known to have been Queen Elizabeth’s guest chamber.

A trip to Canterbury would not be complete without a visit to England’s most important Christian monument, Canterbury Cathedral. Nicknamed the Mother Church of the worldwide Anglican Communion, this striking UNESCO World Heritage Site is famous for being the setting of Thomas Becket’s murder back in 1170; nowadays it makes a very fascinating place to explore.

Unwind in the stunning natural surroundings of Westgate Garden, the picturesque landscape of this riverside park is a delightful place for a relaxing stroll and a woodland adventure. Begin at the formal gardens before wandering through picnic sites, play parks, idyllic meadows and riverside paths.

What to Do in Canterbury

Check out some incredible pieces of art at The Beaney House of Art and Knowledge; a museum-come-art gallery come library in the city centre that is kitted out with its own visitor centre. Along with lots of fascinating sights to see, the facility also hosts plenty of exciting activities for kids so everyone is sure to be kept entertained during their visit.

For thrill-seekers, you can get your heart racing with a supernatural adventure on a Canterbury Ghost Tour. Commencing at 8 pm, you will be guided through the medieval city after dark, wading through with hidden twists and turns that are sure to send a shiver up your spine.

Jump on a traditional hand-built wooden punt and enjoy a blissful journey along the rivers of Kent. You will be taken to six of the best historic sites in the city along your 45-minute guided tour while treated to lighthearted commentary that will keep you amused along the way.

Best Time to Visit Canterbury

So as to not miss out on all that Canterbury has to offer, it is worth trying to visit when the city gets its best weather. Expect lots of blue skies in April and May, but for the heat, aim to visit during July and August when the town experiences its highest temperatures.
