Ever wondered what it would be like to step back in time and experience the sights, sounds and smells of a bygone era, at The Canterbury Tales you can do just that.
Housed inside the former church of St Margaret's in the heart of old Canterbury, The Canterbury Tales is based on the writings of Geoffrey Chaucer, one of England's finest poets.
Join Chaucer and his merry band of pilgrims on their magical pilgrimage from The Tabard Inn to the shrine of St Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral. Along the way, their stories of love, romance, jealousy and trickery are vividly re-created with all the fun and excitement of the famous Tales.
Spot the well known celebrities providing the characterisation in English on audio-guides with translations available in French, German, Dutch, Italian, Spanish and Japanese. A special commentary for children is also available.
