Step by Step
Start the day by travelling from London on an air-conditioned coach to two of the world’s most prestigious university cities. During the tour, the guide will introduce you to their history, academic traditions and the notable figures who have studied there, whilst you enjoy the English countryside between the two destinations.
In Cambridge, you’ll visit iconic sites such as Senate House, currently used for graduation ceremonies, and the striking Corpus Clock, situated next to Corpus Christi College. With the ticket-inclusive option, you’ll also gain access to King’s College Chapel, a gem of Gothic architecture famous for its medieval stained-glass windows and its close association with the college’s prestigious choir.
The tour continues in Oxford, where you’ll take a guided walk through cobbled streets, ancient squares and narrow alleyways surrounded by towers and university buildings. During the tour, you’ll see sights such as the Bodleian Library and experience the atmosphere of the oldest university in the English-speaking world.
Those who choose the option including admission tickets will also be able to visit Christ Church College, one of Oxford’s most famous colleges. You’ll stroll through its historic courtyards and recognise locations featured in the Harry Potter films, whose world was inspired by places such as the college’s Great Hall. After the tour, you’ll return comfortably to London.
