The cost of this pilgrimage is from £1080 per person and includes most expenses. A number of single rooms are available for a supplement from £270 per person.
You will stay for three nights in Canterbury at the Canterbury Cathedral Lodge, which occupies a city centre site, and is close to the Cathedral.
Make your own way to Canterbury by car, train or coach. Canterbury Cathedral Lodge offers very limited on-site parking within the Cathedral grounds, so they recommend parking in a nearby city car park. 24 hour electronic parking permits for nearby city car parks are available at £13.50. These permits can be booked during check-in while dropping off luggage. Once activated with Canterbury City Council, you can proceed to the park outside the Cathedral grounds.
Three breakfasts, three dinners and two lunches are included, as are all entrance fees and gratuities, which the tour leader will disburse to those who help us on our journey.
A £500 per person non refundable deposit is payable now with the final balance due twelve weeks prior to departure.

Mobility
Many of our tours and excursions are designed for those who are able to travel independently, or with the support of a companion who can assist during the trip. We recommend that participants feel comfortable with physical activity and are able to manage longer travel days, which may include early starts and extended periods on the road. We encourage you to consider your personal health and comfort when planning your adventure, and we're happy to help if you have any specific concerns or questions about the suitability of a tour for your needs.
