A Scenic and Historic Corner of Kent

Appreciating the character and attractions of White Cliffs Country helps explain the varied travel it involves and why a fixed-price transfer suits the area so well. White Cliffs Country is the evocative name given to the scenic corner of east Kent centred on the port town of Dover and the charming coastal town of Deal, defined above all by its most famous natural landmark, the iconic White Cliffs of Dover, the dramatic chalk cliffs rising from the sea that have for centuries served as a symbol of England and a welcome sight to those returning across the Channel. The area is rich in both scenery and history: the mighty Dover Castle, one of the largest and most important castles in England with two thousand years of history commanding the town and coast; the cliffs themselves, with their walking trails and viewpoints and the National Trust land along the coast; the pretty and historic town of Deal with its castle, seafront and conservation area; nearby Sandwich, one of England's best-preserved medieval towns; the beautiful coastal spot of St Margaret's Bay; and the cathedral city of Canterbury a short distance inland. Alongside its role as a visitor destination, the area is a major transport gateway: Dover is one of the busiest ferry ports in the country, handling cross-Channel services to France, and also has a cruise terminal from which cruises depart, meaning the area sees a constant flow of travellers arriving and departing with luggage. This combination of spread-out scenic and historic attractions, coastal towns, and a busy port and cruise terminal, in an area that is partly rural and a fair distance from the airports and London, creates a wide range of travel needs that are all well suited to a door-to-door fixed-price transfer: sightseeing trips around the cliffs, castle and coastal towns at your own pace; runs to and from the ferry port and cruise terminal with luggage, timed around sailings; connections to Canterbury and beyond; and airport transfers over the longer distances involved. Understanding the scenic, historic and gateway character of White Cliffs Country shows why a fixed-price transfer, door-to-door with the fare agreed in advance, is such a convenient way to handle every journey in this appealing corner of Kent.
