Cambridge University Guided Tour
We'll meet at the entrance to King's College at the selected time and spend 1.5 hours exploring the beautiful city of Cambridge. During the tour, we'll travel back in time and find out about a thousand years of history. First, we'll head to Great Saint Mary's Church, dedicated to Saint Mayor the Great, and see the room where Newton developed his theory of gravity. We will also visit the pub where Watson and Crick announced a significant 20th-century discovery and a contemporary clock that does not tell the time correctly. The Gothic and Neoclassical architecture will be a highlight.
The student atmosphere in Cambridge is notable, and the tour guide will be a University of Cambridge graduate or current student. They will provide insight into student life, including “college parents” and May Balls, along with facts about each college, such as which is the most luxurious.
