This is a great day trip from London. It was about an hour and 40 minutes by car, but there are trains that can get you there.
St. Martin's Church
We stumbled across this church—one of the oldest in England!
See MoreCanterbury Cathedral
This was great. Next time, I’d get a tour because it has a fascinating history.

BookWestgate Gardens
This is where I always see those Instagram pics of Canterbury. It’s just one tiny section of this park. I imagine the best time to go is when everything is blooming in spring. We’re slightly late—almost summer.
See MoreTiny Tim's Tearoom
Go here for the charm alone and afternoon tea. Check out the ladies room on the off-kilter third floor.
See MoreABode Canterbury
This was highly recommended for afternoon tea. I’m glad we chose Tiny Tim’s for the historic charm. ABode is in a modernized space.
See MoreSt Augustine's Abbey
We just got a peek at this, and it looked cool, but we didn’t have time.
See MoreThe Goods Shed
This looked cool, but it’s a little out of the way and we were exhausted by the end of the day.
