Description

Cambridge is just an hour or so by train from London (or Uber-Taxi ride)and makes for a great day trip or indeed a place for a longer stay. Join me and follow in the footsteps of such luminaries as Sir Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin and Professor Stephen hawking. Cambridge is famous around the world for its renowned university education and it only takes a few hours here to understand what an inspiring place it is. History seeps outs of every stone as you wonder around this beautiful centre of learning and walking from one college to another through courtyards and into ornate chapels. Cambridge is instantly recognisable from numerous television series and films and we will explore some of the most beautiful and historic sights. We will visit some of the most famous spots and several out of the way too and have time for any souvenirs, tea shops or an old pub along the way.
