Your visit may be short in time, but we will capture the essence of this historic city. As we walk, let me paint you a picture: a mini masterclass in architecture and design, viewing historic milestones from the last 800 years right up to the 21st century. I shall animate these with stories of town and gown, that is how life in the colleges differed from that encountered on the streets of Cambridge. Stroll along the backs of the river Cam watching the punts and/or opt to climb the university church of great St Marys to get a birds eye view of the city below. I hope to educate, entertain and provide a fun filled few hours for memorable time in this remarkable ancient city.
Iconic landmarks lie virtually alongside each other ! The Perpendicular Gothic Kings College Chapel, home of the celebrated choir and Senate House, next door, the Classically styled ceremonial centre with Great St Marys directly opposite. An ancient thoroughfare close by, used a lot in local filming, hides an often missed secret door. Enter St Johns College to see the Bridge of Sighs over the Cam. The Holy Sepulchre Norman Church- only of of 4 left in England. The Eagle Pub, home of WW11 soldiers and Cambridge scholars. Round the corner see the extraordinary Corpus Clock of 2008. Stand on the bridge to see the mathematical bridge at Queens' College and finally visit the Fitzwilliam Museum, 5 minutes away. There is plenty to see so other landmarks can be included, customising the tour to suit your interests.
