My mother and I had a terrific time touring the Kent and Dover countryside with Jane (Tours of the Realm Tours). She was very informative and put us at ease from the moment we met her at the train station. She was very attentive and ensured that her tour met our expectations. She is an excellent guide and I highly... More

As a birthday present my husband extended our visit to the UK with an additional 4 days in Canterbury so I could visit gardens. He contacted several people. Jane was so personable and prompt he chose her to be our tour guide. It was a great decision. Jane picked us up at the train station (from London) and we started... More

This tour gives you the local flavour which you would never get with a regular corporate company. My dad who was visiting from Mexico and myself were met by Jane at the train station and we had the opportunity to tour Dover castle and have a great view of the White Cliffs as well as a tour of the countryside....

Jane Martin's tour company is outstanding. She is a delightful person with a wonderful depth of knowledge about Canterbury and the Kent countryside and attractions. We had a memorable and (on our part) effortless 3 day tour and saw so many things we would never have discovered on our own. She maintains a beautiful car, planned our days around the... More

My wife, daughter and I were met by Jane Martin at the cruise ship terminal in Dover. We had engaged Jane to take us to see the town in Kent where my family originated. Before we arrived, she had researched the town and my family as well as having arranged for us to have a private tour of the Norman... More

This summer I studied in London through my university but wanted to take a weekend trip of the countryside with a dear friend. We chose Canterbury because of the historical significance it possesses but we didn't really know what other activities we could do besides tour the city. We found Jane after a couple of internet searches and right from... More

My husband and I were fortunate to locate Jane Martin to drive us from London to Dover by way of Canterbury Cathedral and many picture perfect Kentish villages and country byways. As a native of Kent, Jane is extremely knowledgeable about the area and her deep love and appreciation for Canterbury made the visit so meaningful. On the way to... More

As the family "travel agent," I had a problem. We wanted to have a leisurely day between leaving our cruise ship in Dover and taking the Eurostar to Paris. How could we do this without renting a car or taking a ship bus to London? I found Jane Martin and her company Tours of the Realm on TripAdvisor. She sounded... More

I contacted Jane as I wanted to introduce my wife, son and his new bride to our ancestral routes. With that in mind, I booked a day with Tours of the Realm. I gave Jane the brief description of Royton Manor near Lenham written by a family member in the 19th Century. And she found it. Not only did she... More

My husband and I went on a Tour of the Realm on March 13th and 14th. We took the train to Canterbury West from London and met Jane at the station. We went to Sandwich, Deal, Walmer, St. Margaret’s Bay and Canterbury. In Canterbury, she led us through the Cathedral and told us interesting facts. The next morning she picked... More
