Unusual things to do

Unusual/Quirky

For a relaxing start to your evening, why not call into the Cathedral for evensong and a chance to hear the world famous Canterbury choir singing? Evensong is sung at 17.30 on weekdays and 15.30 at weekends. Or catch some of the world’s top authors talking about their latest works at Canterbury’s leading bookshops.

Then, as the light begins to fade, join Kent’s premier award-winning Ghost Hunter for an entertaining blend of history, humour and haunting around the dark streets. No need to book, just materialise!

Get a different perspective on Canterbury by viewing it from the water. Why not treat yourself to a peaceful candlelit boat trip on the River Stour, with a historical commentary as you watch the city float by? Or lie back and drift along the river in an elegant punt, guided by an experienced boatman. A Wine and Dine River Tour includes a luxury picnic hamper.
