Description
Description
A city that celebrates quintessential England with pioneering scientific research. With famous alumni such as Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, and Professor Stephen Hawking, you’ll be following in some famous footsteps. See the colleges where these great minds studied and be inspired by the same surroundings which changed the course of history.
Grab a pint at the Eagle Pub, the birthplace of the discovery of DNA and haven for World War II airmen, or peek inside the stunning King’s College Chapel, an astounding piece of Gothic architecture which took over a century to build. Watch time go by at the Corpus Clock as the ‘time-eater’ devours each minute of the day atop one of the most unique clocks in the world.
Explore the lesser-known stories of the city, and don’t forget to take time to wander beyond the university. The cobbled streets, filled with the whirr of bicycle wheels, are packed with independent restaurants, proper British pubs, and a thriving market whilst cows wander across riverside paths without a care in the world.
Head around the city like a true local and get yourself a pedal bike. Many of the hotels have complementary bikes you can hire when staying there or you can hire from local bike shops in Cambridge.
