No, access to the coastal paths is free. You only pay for parking (£5) and optional tours of the Fan Bay Deep Shelter or South Foreland Lighthouse.
Yes, if you lack a car. The drive or train journey from London takes up to two hours each way. Guided tours handle the logistics and often combine the cliffs with Canterbury Cathedral or Dover Castle.
Most general day trips from London do not allocate enough time for the 45-minute Fan Bay Deep Shelter tour. If you specifically want to do this, traveling independently is usually better.

Our guide, OZ was wonderful and provided lots of information on each site we visited. He had extensive historical knowledge to impart which made the day very enjoyable.
Hi quality tour experience from booking to drop off. Really great day to see some sites for a day trip out of London. Our guide Peter was a pleasure.
Cameron, the guide and the driver Admen were wonderful. Cameron had a great sense of humour and I enjoyed his word origin stories and how he did different voices and characters of history. I would recommend this tour again anybody visiting London, again Cameron and the driver Admen were great
