Unfortunately they cannot cover Dover for several reason's, i.e. distance, time hills, we are trying to contact a Dover man who we have been told, owns a Double Decker bus, who might be able to help with Dover visitors, if anyone has information about this person we would appreciate it, we would be willing to pay his diesel should anyone contact him. Thanks

06:2527475There's two guys who may be able to help Gary; one is Dave Atkins of the Dover Transport Museum who also owns some vintage buses (dave@opentopbus.co.uk).
The other is Richard Mahony who operates White Cliffs Boat and Bus Tours (info@Doverwhiteclifftours.com).
Richard has a smaller single-decker 12 or 5 seater coach and Dave has the full-size buses and is more expensive than Richard (naturally so, as they are bigger buses and vintage as well).
Good Luck.
Roger
