Made famous by its beautiful white cliffs, Dover is located on the Strait of Dover at England’s closest point to continental Europe. Steeped in history, Dover’s famous white chalk cliffs and its Medieval castle have guarded England from Roman to modern times. A tour of the castle offers views of the Secret Operations Room, the Communications Room, the Hospital and the Napoleonic casements. Stroll along the miles of National Trust countryside and coastline with its spectacular views of the white cliffs and the Dover Straits, and the landmark Victorian South Foreland Lighthouse. Visit the still working Crabble Corn Mill built in 1812 and the 3500 year old Bronze Age boat at the Dover Museum. Dover can be your gateway to London, with its exceptional museums, monuments, world-class shopping and restaurants.
