Overview
Escape London to Kent, known as The Garden of England! Thirty-two minutes from London Bridge by direct train sits Tonbridge — a medieval market town on the River Medway. This day tour includes 4 visits: 1. Proper English pub! The Nelson Arms — CAMRA Kent Regional Pub of the Year 2023 and 2024, and one of the last four pubs shortlisted for CAMRA National Pub of the Year 2023. A guided ale trial of Kentish cask ales to find your favourite. 2. Tonbridge Castle — a Norman fortress built after 1066 to guard the crossing of the River Medway on the road from Hastings to London. Nearly a thousand years of history, free to walk through. 3. A riverboat cruise on the Medway follows — quiet, electric-powered, the skipper sharing local history as you glide past willows, meadows and wildlife. 4. Finish with a proper English cream tea: scones, clotted cream, jam and a pot of tea by the riverside in a teahouse. Ale trial, castle entry, river cruise and cream tea all included.
