Cambridge

We begin our day travelling to Cambridge. Cambridge's stately Gothic style College buildings rise spectacularly from the greenery along the River Cam where students and visitors enjoy punting along the River. We visit the magnificent perpendicular chapel of King's College, founded in 1441, it’s the finest and grandest example of late medieval Gothic architecture in England and is a fitting tribute to the great minds that have studied here.
During your walking tour of this City filled with beautiful buildings and historical quirks you'll visit the so-called 'Bridge of Sighs', named after its look-a-like in Venice and several other Colleges that make up the University, each with their own stories to tell.

Oxford

Through scenic countryside to Oxford, bridging - in a couple of hours - centuries of scholarly rivalry between these two venerable institutions! Oxford, the 'City of Dreaming Spires', whose hushed courtyards and elegant, dignified timeworn buildings have inspired generations of scholars (including Bill Clinton in the 1970s!) and writers, including Lewis Carroll who wrote 'Alice in Wonderland' here.
Find your own inspiration in the sense of tradition and intellectual curiosity that pervades this lovely City - you'll visit Christchurch, where Harry Potter scenes were filmed and where Albert Einstein studied - bring your camera! On your walking tour of Oxford you'll see the Bodleian library and the picture-perfect College courtyards for which Oxford is justifiably famous.
