LuxuryCarHire.Club delivers self-drive supercars across Canterbury and Kent from £795/day. Take a Ferrari F8 Tributo along the A2 to Dover with the white cliffs ahead, drive a Lamborghini Huracan Evo through the Elham Valley via the Kent Downs AONB, or cruise the A290 coastal run to Whitstable in a McLaren 720S. Fully insured, delivered to your Canterbury address or hotel, with 150 miles included.
Our Canterbury self-drive collection includes the Ferrari F8 Tributo (from £1,100/day), Lamborghini Huracan Evo (from £1,050/day), McLaren 720S (from £1,100/day), Porsche 911 Turbo S (from £850/day), Aston Martin DB11 (from £895/day), and the Mercedes-AMG GT (from £795/day). Each vehicle arrives at your Canterbury address, hotel, or venue with a full orientation covering driving modes, controls, and Kent route recommendations tailored to the A2 Dover road, Kent Downs AONB, and Alkham Valley circuits. Every hire includes comprehensive insurance, 150 miles per day, 24/7 roadside assistance, and a personal concierge who handles delivery logistics and dining reservations at venues such as The Goods Shed on Station Road West. Canterbury sits where the A2, A28, and A290 converge, placing the white cliffs of Dover 16 miles to the south-east, the Kent Downs AONB directly to the south, and the Whitstable coast 6 miles to the north — three entirely different driving landscapes reachable within fifteen minutes of the city centre.
“"Hired the Ferrari F8 Tributo for a Saturday drive from Canterbury through the Alkham Valley to Dover. The B-roads past Lydden are smooth, empty, and properly maintained — exactly the kind of route a mid-engined supercar was designed for. Delivered to our hotel on the High Street and collected on Sunday evening."”
, — James, Canterbury, CT1Canterbury to Dover via the A2 covers 16 miles of well-maintained dual carriageway before dropping to the coastal road above the iconic white cliffs. The Ferrari F8 Tributo rewards this route for its mid-range torque through the sweeping A2 curves past Barham Downs and Bridge. Most clients stop above the White Cliffs National Trust site before returning via the Alkham Valley B-roads — a 45-mile loop that combines motorway pace with single-track chalk downland lanes past vineyards and hop gardens.
The Kent Downs AONB extends south from Canterbury through some of the finest B-road driving in South East England. The Elham Valley road from Canterbury through Barham, Elham, and Lyminge covers 18 miles of rolling chalk downland — smooth tarmac, generous sight lines, and minimal traffic outside weekend afternoons. The McLaren 720S handles the rhythm of this route particularly well, with constant elevation changes through dry valleys that reward precise throttle control and late braking into village approaches.
The Alkham Valley between Canterbury and Dover passes through Kent's vineyard belt — Barnsole Vineyard, Elham Valley Vineyard — where chalk downland B-roads weave between hop gardens and orchards. A Lamborghini Huracan Evo in the Garden of England landscape creates a visual contrast that clients photograph extensively. The valley road is quiet, well-surfaced, and includes several miles of uninterrupted straights between Lydden and Alkham village.

“"Booked the McLaren 720S for my husband's 40th. We drove through the Elham Valley, stopped in Chilham for coffee, then took the A2 to Dover and back through Barham. The team delivered to our door in Bridge at 9am with a full walkthrough."”
“"Used the Aston Martin DB11 for a Kent vineyard tour — lunch at Barnsole Vineyard, then afternoon driving through the Kent Downs to Wye and back via Chilham. The car suits Kent's country lanes and flint villages better than anything else in the fleet."”
The standout route from Canterbury is the A2 to Dover with a return through the Alkham Valley. Leave the city via the A2 south-east, passing through Bridge village and across Barham Downs — 16 miles of flowing dual carriageway before the road descends toward the Channel port. At Dover, take the coastal road east above the white cliffs before turning inland to Alkham village, then follow the chalk downland lane through the vineyard belt back to Canterbury via Lydden and Barham. The full loop covers 45 miles and takes three hours with stops at the White Cliffs viewpoint and a vineyard tasting.
The A28 from Canterbury to Ashford covers 14 miles through the villages of Chartham, Chilham, and Wye. Chilham — with its medieval castle and Jacobean square — provides a natural stop for photographs. The road follows the Great Stour valley with long straight sections between villages that suit the Aston Martin DB11 for its blend of grand touring comfort and performance through flowing corners.
The A290 coastal run from Canterbury to Whitstable covers just 6 miles but connects the historic city to Kent's oyster coast in under ten minutes. The route is short enough for an hourly hire — collect a Porsche 911 Turbo S, drive to Whitstable harbour, stop for oysters at the Royal Native Oyster Stores, and return to Canterbury within the hour.
Canterbury's nearest airports are London Gatwick (LGW), approximately 69 miles west via the M20 and M23 (70-minute transfer), and London City Airport (LCY), approximately 65 miles via the A2 and M2 (80-minute transfer). We arrange airport collection at both terminals.
