One of the World’s Great Cities
History seeps out of every stone — and the stories are extraordinary
Cambridge is one of the great cities of the world — and just an hour by train from London, which makes it perfect for a brilliant day trip or as the base for a longer stay. Its fame rests on its ancient university, but only when you walk from one college to another through the courtyards and into the ornate chapels does the full weight of what has happened here begin to sink in.
Scientists, writers, mathematicians, philosophers — the list of people who studied or worked in these buildings and went on to change the world is almost incomprehensible. Our private tour brings those stories to life as we explore the most beautiful and historic sights at a pace entirely your own.
King’s College — one of the most magnificent sights in England
The River Cam — walk the bridges or take to the water by punt
The River, the Colleges & Beyond
A city made for unhurried exploration
The River Cam winds through the heart of the university — and walking the famous bridges that span it is one of the great pleasures of any visit. Better still, if you fancy it, we can arrange a trip on the river by one of the local boaters — punting under the bridges while the college buildings drift past is a genuinely magical experience.
Cambridge is also full of wonderful churches, fascinating museums, and some of the finest cafés and independent shops you’ll find in any English city. And if you have a sweet tooth — the chocolatiers and confectioners here are just divine.
The possibilities of a private tour day in Cambridge are endless — and every tour is completely bespoke, tailored to your interests and pace. It will be a day to remember forever.
