Overview

Think Canterbury is all quiet prayers and pretty stained glass? Think again. Join us for a stroll through 2,000 years of brain-stirring, sewage-sloshing, and pilgrim-scamming. We’ll visit the exact spot an Archbishop had his head sliced like a boiled egg, explore the medieval ‘piss-poor’ industries of the River Stour, and find out why the most popular souvenir in town was a bottle of 'holy' floor-wash. It’s a tour that puts the ‘bury’ in Canterbury!"
