K&ESR Amongst The Top 10% of Listings

The Kent & East Sussex Railway (K&ESR) is celebrating a global Tripadvisor's® Travellers' Choice® Award for the second year in a row.


The award honours businesses that consistently earn great reviews, placing the K&ESR amongst the top 10% of listings of places to visit around the world on Tripadvisor. This comes as the railway once again receives a Visit England Quality Assured Visitor Attraction mark and just a few months after being recognised as Best Family Experience in Kent in the Muddy Stilettos Awards 2025.


As the world's largest travel guidance platform, Tripadvisor has unparalleled authority with travellers and diners. This award is based on genuine feedback from anyone in the community who has visited and left an authentic, first-hand review on Tripadvisor over a 12-month period, making it a valuable and trustworthy designation of great places to visit.



K&ESR Chairman Derrick Bilsby commented: "We are honoured and humbled to have once again earned a coveted top spot on Trip Advisor through the reviews of our customers, as well as securing our Visit England Quality Assurance mark.


"We look forward to welcoming many more visitors to experience living history at the K&ESR and a step away from the everyday on our wonderful heritage line."
