Embark on a day tour to South Downs National Park from London and admire the beauty of England's stunning southern coast and sprawling green hills. Visit notable landmarks including the Devil's Dyke, Seven Sisters Country Park, and Beachy Head on a guided tour.
In the morning, meet your guide at London Bridge station and catch the train to Brighton, using your pre-booked return train tickets. Upon arrival in Brighton, climb aboard the luxury minibus for your adventure for the day.
Arrive in the South Downs National Park and first visit Devil's Dyke to admire the views across the lowland weald. Learn from your guide about how the landscape was formed over thousands of years, as well as how Devil's Dyke got its name.
Make your way to Middle Farm, where you can buy cheeses, sparkling wines, or cider from Sussex. Middle Farm will be the lunch stop where the quaint tea rooms serve light lunches, snacks, coffee, and tea.
Continue along quiet country lanes to the Seven Sisters Country Park. Make a short stop to visit the Neolithic carving known as the Longman of Wilmington.
Next, enjoy a guided walk along Beachy Head and take stunning photos of the white chalk cliffs. Travel to Birling Gap and see the results of accelerated coastal erosion.
Arrive at Seaford Head to enjoy the iconic view of the Seven Sisters, one of the most famous viewpoints along England's southern coast. Your guide will then take you on a leisurely walk around the headland to get the best views of the cliffs.
Finally, hop back on the bus and be returned to Brighton where you will catch the train back to Central London.

Everything was perfect. The transportation, the guides and last but not least the breathtaking views everywhere.
It was an excellent day, despite the drizzle and wind. Our guide, Keven, has a gift for describing his region with enthusiasm and in accessible English.
excellent
Fantastic stops and views. Loved the movie connections and flexibility Kevin offered.
The country side South Downs was gorgeous, quiet and relaxing. The guide was knowledgeable, patient and very interactive with everyone in the group. He was also an excellent driver.
The overall experience was excellent. Below are the itinerary details and additional recommendations. After gathering at the station, the guide will lead everyone to the platform to board the train. Please remember the time and station where you need to get off (though the guide will also come to remind you during the ride). Upon arriving at Brighton Station, you will transfer to a 16-person minibus. At this point, you will switch to another guide (the driver). Guide Paul is fantastic—a local resident of Brighton—who provides detailed explanations and shares local stories and geological knowledge, helping us gain a deeper understanding of the White Cliffs and Brighton. Itinerary: Station集合-Train to Brighton-Transfer to minibus-Devil’s Dyke-Alfriston village for lunch-West side of the White Cliffs-East side of the White Cliffs-Wimington Long Man Each segment of the drive won’t take long (approximately 20-30 minutes), but the time spent at each location is a bit short (approximately 30-90 minutes). However, this is typical for a day trip—visiting many locations makes for a fulfilling experience! For lunch in the town, you’ll need to quickly choose a restaurant, otherwise you might end up rushing through your meal. The return train ticket has no time restrictions or designated station, so you don’t have to take it all the way to London Bridge. We got off at King’s Cross Station. 👍 When leaving, Paul offered two options (take the train back or stay in Brighton for a bit longer), and he was very kind to drive us to a place near the pier. However, it’s actually not too far to walk on your own. I recommend staying in Brighton to explore, take the i360 for the views, and enjoy some seafood. 👏 However, don't leave too late for the return trip. I suggest arriving at the station by 9:00–9:30 PM, as the 11:00 PM train is likely to be canceled (Paul recommended this, and we did see the 11:00 PM train canceled on our return).
From the moment we met our guide at the train station to our drop off point we felt so well taken care of! Ish met us and made sure we all got onto the train without any problem. He was very kind and attentive! Fantastic person to start our journey with. From there he dropped us off with our bus/travel guide Anton who was also very kind and thoughtful. We happened to be out and about during a very warm day but he made sure to provide us with water and a/c. He was knowledgeable and made a point to make sure everyone felt engaged. Would recommend this tour to others!
Adam is a great guide!
just one word: perfect!
