Dover Castle

Visit Dover Castle, the stone hearted fortress of Dover, Kent, England, popular along with the White Cliffs and tourists alike.

Rising above the famous White Cliffs, Dover Castle is an icon of England. Built soon after 1066, this mighty fortress has been the site of royal intrigue and epic sieges and was the centre of the crucial effort to evacuate hundreds of thousands of Allied troops from the beach of Dunkirk.

Roam around the Great Tower with its recreated medieval interior and uncover the colourful world of Henry II. Climb to the very top and enjoy amazing panoramic views.

Follow the dramatic story of a wounded pilot fighting for his life in the underground Second World War hospital. And don’t miss the chance to relive the tension and triumph of the Dunkirk evacuation, which was masterminded from these very tunnels during the dark days of May 1940.

Book your tickets now and get ready for an action-packed, unforgettable and great-value day out.
