In the city that inspired great minds from Charles Darwin to Stephen Hawking, you'll find one of the world's oldest universities, the 1871 Gothic- revival All Saints Church and the gardens favoured by 17th-century poet John Milton. Cambridge is also home to ADC Theatre, the oldest university playhouse in England. Evenings are perfect for taking in the mix of traditional pubs and contemporary restaurants. Climb the tower of the University's Great St Mary's Church for sweeping views of the city. 
 
This visit is a self-guided trip, which means that you can decide for yourself what you would like to do during the visit! Here are some lists of recommendations to do in Cambridge:

2 Hour Walking Tour 

Our guides are all well-versed in Cambridge’s unique history, but they also know how to make this information accessible to all our visitors. It’s not all dates and statistics! They’ll also cover the quirkier and stranger aspects of the city and the University. In fact, we round things off with the intriguing tale of the Cambridge Five, five academics who were recruited as Soviet spies right here in the heart of England! 

Our Cambridge tour covers a huge number of sites, including: 

Kings College 
 Corpus Christi College 
 Pembroke College 
 St Catherine’s College 
 Queens’ College 
 Clare College 

 Trinity Hall 
 Gonville and Caius College 
 The Senate House 
 Trinity College 
 Cambridge Five 
 And an in-depth history of the town itself
