spintowin Posted April 24, 2015 #1 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but is there public transportation from cruise port to the castle? What about to the cliffs? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted April 24, 2015 #2 Share Posted April 24, 2015 (edited) We took a taxi The castle did not open until 10 am so the driver took us for a tour around the area & a stop at a parkette near the cliffs There is a shuttle service but it was not running the day we were there http://www.whitecliffscountry.org.uk/Cruise/Shuttle-Service.aspx Edited April 24, 2015 by LHT28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spintowin Posted April 24, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Does the castle take USD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnip eater Posted April 24, 2015 #5 Share Posted April 24, 2015 (edited) Does the castle take USD? Quick answer No, Only £s. Is this your first trip to the UK? Edited April 24, 2015 by turnip eater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spintowin Posted April 24, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Basically, yes. Have flown in and out of Heathrow. It doesn't look like it is very far to castle. Do you know if it is walk friendly? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Sorry, I don't, but I'm sure someone from the area will be along soon. I've never been to Dover Castle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted April 24, 2015 #8 Share Posted April 24, 2015 ...... It doesn't look like it is very far to castle. Do you know if it is walk friendly? Thanks Dover Castle is well worth visiting. It is located on the top of a hill, so it is easiest to take either a taxi or paid shuttle from the cruise port to the castle entrance. After the visit just walk back down to the Dover city center. The castle does take some credit cards. We used Visa to pay for the entrance fee.

Rare LHT28 Posted April 24, 2015 #9 Share Posted April 24, 2015 You can ask at the entry kiosk to call you a taxi when you are ready to leave unless the shuttle bus is running then wait for it We used GBP It is not far from the port but the hike up the hill is a killer :D We were there 5 hrs & did not see it all Enjoy Lyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
