Travel notes
Good to know about Canterbury Cathedral.
Getting dropped off
The precincts close to traffic — cars set down at the Christ Church Gate on Buttermarket, the pilgrim’s own approach.
Worth knowing
Dover’s cruise terminal is twenty-five minutes on — the cathedral stop turns a port transfer into a pilgrimage, gently.
While you visit
Your chauffeur repositions rather than parks — when you message, the car is already moving towards the agreed point.
No parking, by design
Central attractions have effectively no visitor parking. The chauffeur answer is simple: set down at the entrance, wait off-site, return on your message.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and DBS-checked.
