Cambridge — one of the most beautiful and extraordinary cities in the world
Don’t Just See London
Lots of people only visit London — and think they’ve seen the UK
“That would be like me just visiting New York and Boston and calling the USA a done-deal. If you’ve not left London then you have no idea what the real UK is — so take a chance, or indeed a punt (little Cambridge joke there), on one of our great tours.”
— Stephen, Ye Olde England Tours
Cambridgeshire is less than 60 miles from London and a short trip on the train — but in so many ways it is a world away. Famous for its beautiful cities, its flat and extraordinarily fertile fenlands, and above all for one of the most ancient and magnificent centres of learning anywhere on earth.
Whether it’s the tried and trusted Cambridge, Peterborough with its breathtaking cathedral, one of the finest country houses in the world (as seen in The Crown), or gorgeous chocolate-box market towns — we have something just for you.

Four ways to discover Cambridgeshire
Cambridge Private Walking Tour
The Backs, King’s College Chapel, the Mathematical Bridge, punting on the Cam — and the extraordinary stories of the scientists, writers and thinkers who changed the world from these ancient streets and courts.
View Tour →Peterborough Cathedral & Old City Tour
One of England’s greatest and most underrated cathedrals — and the burial place of two of England’s most famous queens. Peterborough rewards those who venture beyond Cambridge with extraordinary history.
View Tour →Peterborough & Burghley House
Burghley House is one of the greatest Elizabethan houses in England — and as seen in The Crown, one of the most filmed. Peterborough cathedral and Burghley together make for a truly spectacular day.
View Tour →Peterborough & Stamford or Oakham
Combine Peterborough’s magnificent cathedral with either the Georgian splendour of Stamford or the charming county town of Oakham — both just a short train ride away, both utterly beautiful.
View Tour →Easy from London
Cambridge & Peterborough both have direct trains from London
Cambridge is under an hour from King’s Cross. Peterborough is under 50 minutes from St Pancras. Both are perfect for a day trip — or even better, a long weekend staying locally and combining several tours.
