Dover Castle

Perched atop the White Cliffs, Dover Castle is a monumental fortress that has stood the test of time. With a history that stretches back to the 11th century, the castle has been aptly dubbed the "Key to England" due to its strategic importance throughout the centuries. Visitors can wander through medieval tunnels, explore the Great Tower, and immerse themselves in the castle's vivid past. For a truly immersive experience, Happytripz guides bring to life the tales of knights and royalty that once roamed these halls.

The White Cliffs of Dover

No trip to Dover is complete without a visit to the White Cliffs of Dover. These striking natural features have served as a symbol of hope and freedom for centuries. A walk along the cliff-top paths offers breathtaking views of the English Channel, and on a clear day, you might even catch a glimpse of France! Happytripz can arrange cliff-top picnics or guided walks to ensure you soak in the best vistas.

Dover Museum

For those intrigued by local history, the Dover Museum presents a fascinating journey through time. The museum houses the Bronze Age boat, which is an astonishing archaeological find and the world's oldest known seafaring vessel. Happytripz recommends this spot for families and history enthusiasts eager to learn about Dover's rich heritage.

Samphire Hoe

Nature lovers will revel in the beauty of Samphire Hoe, a country park created from the material dug to create the Channel Tunnel. This tranquil spot is perfect for a leisurely stroll or a picnic with panoramic sea views.
