Visit Kent has the perfect recipe to keep all the family entertained during the summer holidays without even the hassle of driving and finding a parking place at the county’s many tourism honey pots.

Thanks to Visit Kent, top attractions, restaurants, shopping centres, luxury cottages and more are offering a whole selection of 2 for1 offers and special discounts for people taking advantage of Southeastern trains, and Stagecoach and Arriva buses.

“It is the third year we have run campaign to make summer go with a swing in Kent and encourage people to use public transport,” said Lynnette Crisp, head of marketing at Visit Kent.

“This is our biggest and best campaign so far and ideal for local residents and visitors on a budget to discover the wealth of destinations in Kent – from iconic castles and historic houses to designer shopping and high quality restaurants. We even have 2 for1 on accommodation.

“Summer is also when Kent’s magnificent, varied coastline comes into its own from our golden sands to our internationally significant nature reserves.
