Col's Kent Bike Tours - Margate to Whitstable

A unique way to experience Kent! Small group, guided cycling tours for all abilities, exploring both little-known places and the more iconic Kent sights.
Taking in several stunning bays and seaside towns, coastal nature reserves, Roman ruins, a lunch stop at a Victorian seaside resort, and culinary delights in Whitstable. Along the way, there will be frequent stops where Colin will share stories about the history, culture, and landscape, including little known local secrets! Starting at Margate station, just 1hr20 on the train from London!

Itinerary

11am // Meet at Margate station where you will be introduced to your fellow adventurers before heading off along a traffic-free coastal path.

Early Afternoon // Visit an ancient Roman ruin and an imposing medieval church. Lunch (fish 'n' chips or bring a packed lunch) stop in Herne Bay, a quaint Victorian seaside resort and a walk along the pier.

Late Aftrenoon // Arrive in Whitstable, maybe try some Oysters, then to a pub for post-ride pints (when open!).

Either jump on the train with Colin back to Margate or stay in Canterbury, explore, and catch the train back home in your own time.
