116 SNARGATE STREET,
CT17 9DA DOVER
UNITED KINGDOM
You can rent your car or van from the Europcar rental office which is on the main road from the ferry and cruise terminals and next to the Grand Shaft in Dover.
Dover is known above all for its white cliffs. Park your Europcar car or van near the port and take the path along the cliffs. On a clear day you may see as far as France. Don’t forget to visit the South Foreland lighthouse where Marconi made his first attempts at radio navigation. A herd of Exmoor ponies manage the grassland on the cliffs which are a haven for rare plants and butterflies. A mile and a half from the Visitor Centre you can take a tour of the underground Fan Bay Deep Shelter which was tunnelled into the chalk during World War II.
Dover Castle was founded in the eleventh century but also contains earlier remains such as a Roman lighthouse, Iron Age mounds, ditches and early churches. The castle was added to over the centuries. Castle Hill also was tunnelled beneath in the Napoleonic era. The tunnels were reused during World War II and in later times. Their history can be learned in the Wartime Tunnels Uncovered attraction.
Dover’s Western Heights contain more fortifications including the Drop Redoubt, the Citadel and the Deep Shaft, a triple staircase used by troops as a shortcut.
Deal is a short drive from Dover and has another impressive castle. It is from Tudor times and is now part stately home, part fortress.
Richborough on the route to Ramsgate has interesting Roman ruins from the time when the Romans first invaded Britain, as well as a museum and shop. On fine days a boat trip is available showing the route the Romans took.
When planning a trip, keep in mind that certain cities have established a Clean Air Zone. Click here to check that your vehicle emissions meet the required level or a fee will be chargeable.
