5km City Tour
What we'll do
We'll run along the old city walls to the four corners of the city and through hundreds of years of stories. In just an hour you'll see and learn all about the key historic and cultural sites Canterbury has to offer, as well as discovering some of the city's many secrets.
Get ready to sightsee the fit way and have a spectacular time!
Good to know
Our tour starts and finishes by the War Memorial outside the Cathedral on Buttermarket, and is equal parts running and stopping. Your guide will be happy to answer any questions you may have or even take a detour to show you something that may be of interest to the group. The tour lasts approximately 60 minutes, though times vary depending on pace, optional detours and number of questions.
The tour is suitable for all levels of runner, from beginner to expert. We will run at whichever pace feels most comfortable for the group and nobody gets left behind. Our tours contain frequent stops so you will most likely be able to run further and faster than you would on your usual run.
Leave only footprints
We're committed to zero waste, sustainable tourism. Our tour includes digital group photos and an animated route video in the price.
