Product Description
Explore the fascinating Fan Bay Deep Shelter, a remarkable slice of history nestled within the picturesque Langdon Cliffs near Dover. Originally constructed in 1940 for military use, these expansive tunnels are now open for guided tours, allowing visitors aged 12 and above to traverse wartime relics while learning from knowledgeable volunteers. The tour not only highlights the significance of the Second World War but also features intriguing First World War sound mirrors, showcasing early warning technologies that are sure to captivate young history enthusiasts. However, families should note that the tunnels require a bit of a trek, including a 1.5-mile walk from the car park and 125 steps down into the cliff face. With limited availability of tickets and specific opening hours from March to October, advance booking is recommended to ensure a spot for this unique underground adventure. While there are no baby-changing facilities or wheelchair access, the nearby White Cliffs offer a perfect outdoor extension to your visit, making it an all-around enriching family day out.
