Cambridge — one of the most beautiful and extraordinary cities in the world
Under an Hour from London
History seeps out of every stone — and the stories are extraordinary
Cambridge is one of the great cities of the world — and under an hour from London King’s Cross by train, which makes it one of the very best day trips you can make from the capital. I meet you at Cambridge Station, ready to show you the most extraordinary university city on earth (I can meet at Kings Criss if needed).
Scientists, writers, mathematicians and philosophers — the list of people who studied in these buildings and went on to change the world is almost incomprehensible. Walking from one glorious college to another, through ancient courtyards and into ornate chapels, the full weight of what has happened here begins to sink in. And the chocolatiers and confectioners here? Simply divine.
King’s College — one of the most magnificent sights in England
The River Cam — walk the bridges or take to the water by punt
Train Fares Included
Everything taken care of — just turn up at King’s Cross
The return train fares from London are included in your tour price — so there’s nothing to arrange, nothing to book separately. You depart King’s Cross at 8:30am, (I can come in to London if needed) I meet you off the train at Cambridge Station. At the end of the tour I return you to Cambridge Station for your train back to London.
The River Cam winds through the heart of the university — walking the famous bridges is one of the great pleasures of any Cambridge visit. And if you’d like a punt on the water while the college buildings drift past, just say the word — it’s one of the most magical experiences in England.

very beautiful!! Looks like a movie scene :)I bet the sunrise on the buildings look gorgeous.
It does, doesn’t it. I went there on a really sunny mid-winter morning and we could see it from miles and miles away. It just looks spectacular and the inside is equally impressive. Incredible how they built it so long ago.
