Canterbury Tales

Canterbury Tales

Step into medieval Canterbury and accompany Geoffrey Chaucer's colourful characters on their magical pilgrimage from London to the shrine of St Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral. Along the way, their stories of love, romance, jealousy and trickery are vividly re-created with all the fun and excitement of Chaucer's famous Tales. The Canterbury Tales is a stunningly accurate re-creation of medieval life. With audio-guides in English, French, Dutch, German, Italian, Spanish and Japanese, it provides an excellent introduction to the City and its famous literary connection.

Events: All events take place from 11am - 4pm in the churchyard to the rear of the Canterbury Tales, and are included in the ticket price to the main attraction.
