Discover some of the finest gardens, historic estates and beautiful countryside of Kent, Surrey and Sussex on a private chauffeur-driven garden tour from London.
Designed for discerning international visitors, private groups, families, couples, corporate guests and garden enthusiasts, our Gardens of Kent, Surrey & Sussex tours combine the freedom of a completely private itinerary with the comfort and discretion of professional chauffeur service.
With Crony Chauffeur Services, you can choose between chauffeur-only service, a chauffeur accompanied by an official Blue Badge Guide, or an official Blue Badge Driver-Guide who can both drive and guide you throughout the day.
Your garden tour can be carefully tailored around the gardens, historic houses, landscapes and countryside you wish to experience, with the flexibility to spend more time at the places that interest you most.
Private. Bespoke. Unhurried. Chauffeured throughout.
Kent, Surrey and Sussex offer an exceptional combination of historic estates, landscaped gardens, woodland, rolling countryside and remarkable English heritage.
Rather than following a fixed coach-tour schedule, a private chauffeur tour allows you to explore the region at your own pace.
Your day can be designed around your interests — whether you are passionate about horticulture and garden design, interested in English history and architecture, travelling with family, or simply looking for a beautiful and relaxing day in the English countryside.
We can arrange a private itinerary beginning in London and travelling into Kent, Surrey, Sussex or a combination of the three counties, depending on the gardens and experiences you would like to include.
The itinerary is created around your priorities rather than a standard group-tour timetable.
Kent provides an exceptional setting for a private garden tour from London.
Known for its countryside, historic estates and traditional English landscapes, the county offers an opportunity to experience a very different side of England away from the capital.
A private chauffeur allows you to travel comfortably between gardens and estates without the constraints of public transport or organised group tours.
Your itinerary can be tailored around particular gardens, historic properties, seasonal interests or a combination of garden and countryside experiences.
Whether you are looking for an intensive horticultural day or a relaxed country excursion, we can build the journey around your priorities.
Surrey offers another excellent destination for private garden touring from London.
Its proximity to the capital makes it particularly suitable for a full-day private excursion, while its countryside and historic properties provide a distinct contrast to central London.
A chauffeur-driven tour gives you the flexibility to combine garden visits with historic houses, villages, countryside drives and a leisurely lunch.
For international visitors, Surrey can also be incorporated into a wider Kent and Sussex private garden tour, creating a bespoke multi-destination itinerary.
Sussex offers an appealing combination of historic landscapes, gardens, country estates and countryside.
For guests with a particular interest in English gardens, a private chauffeur tour can be designed around selected gardens and estates, allowing sufficient time at each destination rather than rushing from one attraction to another.
Sussex can also form part of a wider private touring itinerary incorporating Kent and Surrey.
Depending on your interests, we can create a day focused almost entirely on gardens or combine garden visits with architecture, history, villages, countryside and fine dining.
Your garden tour can begin directly from your London hotel, private residence or another convenient location.
There is no requirement to meet a group or travel according to a fixed coach timetable.
Your chauffeur collects you at the agreed time and your private journey begins.
Throughout the day, you have the freedom to enjoy the countryside, visit gardens, stop for lunch and adjust the pace of the experience wherever practical.
At the end of the tour, your chauffeur returns you directly to London.
This makes a private chauffeur garden tour particularly convenient for international visitors staying in central London hotels.
No two private garden tours need to be identical.
Some guests want to concentrate on horticulture and garden design.
Others are fascinated by historic houses, architecture and aristocratic estates.
Some prefer a relaxed day with beautiful scenery, a country lunch and one or two exceptional gardens.
Others want to see as much as possible during a full private touring day.
We therefore encourage guests to tell us what interests them before we finalise the itinerary.
We can then help create a route that balances:
Gardens + History + Architecture + Countryside + Comfort
rather than simply providing transportation between predetermined points.
We offer three premium ways to experience a private garden tour in Kent, Surrey and Sussex.
For guests who already know which gardens or estates they wish to visit, our chauffeur-only service provides the simplest and most flexible option.
Your professional chauffeur manages the driving, routing, parking and transfers between destinations while you enjoy the day at your own pace.
This is particularly suitable for returning visitors, experienced garden enthusiasts and guests who prefer to explore independently.
Your chauffeur can collect you from your London hotel or private residence, drive you comfortably into Kent, Surrey or Sussex, remain available throughout the day and return you to London at the conclusion of your tour.
➥ Couples
➥ Families
➥ Private groups
➥ Returning visitors to England
➥ Experienced garden enthusiasts
➥ Guests who already have their own itinerary
Your day. Your gardens. Your schedule.
For guests who want more than transportation, we can arrange a professional chauffeur together with an official licensed Blue Badge Guide.
This is the ideal option for international visitors who want to understand the gardens, houses, estates, history and surrounding countryside rather than simply visit them.
Your chauffeur concentrates on providing a smooth, discreet and comfortable journey between destinations, while your Blue Badge Guide provides the historical, cultural and interpretive expertise throughout the tour.
The itinerary can be developed around your particular interests, with the guide helping bring the landscapes and historic properties to life.
➥ English garden design
➥ Historic estates
➥ Country houses
➥ Architectural heritage
➥ Local history
➥ Royal and aristocratic connections
➥ English landscape traditions
➥ The history of Kent, Surrey and Sussex
➥ Gardens and estates visited during your private tour
For discerning overseas travellers, this combination provides a significantly richer experience than simply hiring a vehicle and driver.
The chauffeur handles the journey.
The guide brings the destination to life.
This is our recommended option for guests visiting England for the first time or those seeking a genuinely private and educational garden experience.
For guests who prefer a more streamlined experience, we can arrange an official Blue Badge Driver-Guide.
A Driver-Guide combines professional driving with licensed guiding expertise, allowing you to travel between destinations and receive commentary and interpretation without the need for separate chauffeur and guide arrangements.
This can be particularly attractive for couples, small families and private groups looking for a more intimate touring experience.
Your Driver-Guide can accompany you throughout the day, helping you understand the gardens, historic properties, countryside and cultural heritage encountered along your route.
➥ Couples
➥ Small private groups
➥ International visitors
➥ Garden enthusiasts
➥ First-time visitors to England
➥ Guests wanting a seamless private touring experience
For a truly personalised day, your Driver-Guide can adapt the pace of the tour according to your interests and the time available.
Your garden tour is conducted in a premium chauffeur-driven vehicle selected according to your party size and requirements.
Our fleet includes luxury Mercedes vehicles suitable for private couples, families and larger groups.
For couples seeking the highest level of luxury, an S-Class can provide an especially refined touring experience.
For families or small groups travelling with luggage or requiring additional interior space, the Mercedes V-Class provides an excellent combination of comfort and practicality.
For larger private groups, executive group transportation can be arranged.
Vehicle selection can be discussed when planning your itinerary.
A private chauffeur garden tour offers a completely different experience from travelling with a large organised group.
You choose the pace.
There is no waiting for strangers, no fixed group timetable and no requirement to follow an itinerary that does not suit your interests.
You choose the company.
Travel privately with your partner, family, friends, clients or invited guests.
You choose the experience.
Spend longer at a garden that fascinates you or move on when you have seen everything you wanted.
You travel door to door.
Your chauffeur can collect you from your London hotel and return you there at the end of the day.
You have professional support throughout the journey.
With our chauffeur + Blue Badge Guide option, you benefit from both premium transportation and licensed guiding expertise.
For overseas visitors, a private garden tour is an opportunity to experience a quieter and more traditional side of England.
Rather than spending every day within central London, venture into the surrounding counties and discover the landscapes, estates and gardens that form part of England’s cultural and horticultural heritage.
Our private tours are particularly suitable for visitors from the United States, Canada, Australia, Europe, the Middle East and Asia seeking a premium, private experience during their stay in London.
We can coordinate the transportation around your wider London itinerary, hotel location and other private touring arrangements.
Our garden tours are not limited to one type of traveller.
Enjoy a relaxed private day in the English countryside with your own chauffeur and, if desired, a Blue Badge Guide.
Create an itinerary that combines gardens with historic properties, countryside and experiences suitable for different generations.
For families and friends travelling together, we can arrange appropriate executive vehicles and coordinate the day’s transportation.
A private garden excursion can also be arranged as a hospitality experience, incentive-day activity or private client programme.
If you already have particular gardens or estates in mind, send us your preferred destinations and we can work around them.
If you are unsure which gardens would best suit your interests, tell us what you enjoy and how much time you have available.
We can then discuss a suitable private touring programme.
Your request may include:
Where multiple destinations are requested, the final itinerary will be planned around realistic driving times, opening arrangements and the amount of time you wish to spend at each location.
