    I agree with Roger, Dover has 1000's visitors via ferries and cruise's that you are not enticing to stop and visit the town itself. I worked at the cruise terminal from its birth and it will not be easy to rectify this problem. There are two types of cruises, one that calls to pick up passengers and up and away, the other uses Dover as port of call. These are the ones you need to target the most. At the moment few call and most run busses straight to Canterbury, Leeds castle etc. Cruise operators plan their brochures sometimes as much as 5 years in advance. The only way to attract these operators into including Dover in there itinerary is to make Dover a more attractive place for their passengers to WANT to visit.
    IE, love or hate the sky lift, that will be an attraction that will enhance Dover' reputation in the tourism eyes.
    The more that is done to attract visitors now, like Roger trying to bring our friends from over the channel, should attract more ferry and cruise passengers to include Dover as part of their holiday and attract more port of calls from cruise operators.
