Description
Follow in the footsteps of Oxford's famous students, from C.S. Lewis to Bill Clinton, as you stroll the captivating college courtyards and cobbled lanes of this historic university town. Take in the famous 'dreaming spires' and see the Bodleian Library - one of the oldest libraries in Europe - on your visit. You'll be captivated by the unspoilt narrow alleys and ancient squares of this naturally beautiful town.
Christ Church
A treat for moviegoers of all ages, Christ Church is instantly recognisable as one of the major locations for the Harry Potter films! Marvel at the magical grandeur of the Great Hall, used as the setting for Hogwarts.
Cambridge
Senate House
Once you’ve left Oxford, you’ll make your way to the beautiful city of Cambridge. It’s here that you will visit Senate House at the world-famous University of Cambridge. Before used by the Council of the Senate for important meetings, it is now the chosen location for students’ degree ceremonies. You’ll get to explore this special location and discover its important history before venturing onto the Corpus Clock!
Corpus Clock
Visit the Corpus Clock, a unique invention outside the Taylor Library at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge University. Revealed to the world by Stephen Hawking, it is made from a 24-carat gold-plated stainless steel disc and has no numbers to tell the time. Instead, it shows the time through lights that shine through individual slits. This unmissable innovation will stay in your mind long after you’ve left!
Mathematical Bridge
You’ll also get to see Cambridge’s Mathematical Bridge during your stop. Designed by William Etheridge, it is nearly 300 years old and has attracted visitors from all across the world. The design gives visitors an intriguing conundrum - it uses only straight timbers but the bridge arches. It’s an absolute must-see!
King’s College Chapel
One of the main highlights of the trip is visiting the exquisite King’s College Chapel. Used as a symbol representing the city of Cambridge, the Chapel is a popular tourist attraction for people across the world. Taking a century to build, starting in 1446 on Henry VI’s demands, King’s College Chapel displays wonderful gothic architecture and huge, enchanting stained glass windows. Featuring the world’s largest fan vault and famous artwork from Rubens, there’s plenty to learn and discover at the home of the King’s College Chapel Choir.
Estimated arrival time back to London is around 7.00pm.

É daquelas coisas que a gente lembra anos depois. A reserva foi simples e a confirmação chegou na hora. Pagamos bem menos que outras opções e a experiência foi igualmente boa. A volta atrasou quase uma hora em relação ao previsto. Recomendaria a qualquer um que visite Londres.

Valeu cada centavo. O guia lembrava o nome de todos, um detalhe que a gente valoriza. Passar por Cambridge já valeu o tour todo. Se estiverem em Londres, não percam.

Mejor de lo que esperaba
Terminamos el día hablando de lo bien que había estado. Volvimos a Cambridge al día siguiente por nuestra cuenta. Pagamos bastante menos que otras opciones y la experiencia fue igual de buena. Muy recomendable para cualquier edad.

Great service
Best day of our stay in Londres. Perfect for getting an overview, then going back to what you liked most. Of the whole route, Luxury air-conditioned coach is what I remember most. Booking was straightforward and confirmation came through instantly. Suitable for any age.

Correto
Boa escolha se for sua primeira vez em Londres. O grupo era pequeno e isso deixou tudo mais tranquilo. A organização era visível, nada improvisado. Guia muito gentil, mas o grupo era grande e não dava conta de todos. O único ponto foi a espera no início, saímos uns vinte minutos atrasados. Boa opção, principalmente na primeira visita.

Lo haría de nuevo, aunque cambiaría un par de cosas. El precio es honesto para lo que se recibe. La caminata hasta Horizonte de Londres valió cada paso. Correcto el guía, aunque el micrófono le fallaba cada tanto. Lo único mejorable fue la espera al inicio, arrancamos unos veinte minutos tarde. Nada grave, pero vale saberlo antes de reservar.
