Overview

Join a local historian and PhD student as we discover the story behind the birth of one of the world’s most famous universities, and what it’s like to be a student at Cambridge University! Take a city break from London and learn about 110 Nobel Prize winners that have walked the halls of this university.

On this private socially-distanced guide, we'll visit the most iconic spots of the city such as Trinity College, King’s College, and Great St Mary's Church. Walkthrough the architectural highlights and follow the footsteps of the famous alumni Prince Charles, Sir Isaac Newton, C.S. Lewis, John Harvard, and Stephen Hawking.

Learn about the various traditions (both familiar and odd), students' lives, and fun facts about past alumni, as you get a more intimate look at the culture, history, and soul of this beautiful picturesque town.

Very nice experience. We can do it at our own pace. The narration was also very interesting, especially about the college itself.

Loved this experience! Perfect for current times where you can completely avoid the crowds and other people and explore Cambridge in your own time. I always hate doing big group tours and this was such a perfect way to get an overview of Cambridge while exploring by yourself
