Excursion to Oxford and Cambridge

Oxford Walking Tour:

Follow in the footsteps of famous Oxford students, from C.S. Lewis to Bill Clinton, as you stroll through the captivating college courtyards and cobbled lanes of this historic university city. See the famous ‘dreaming spires’ and visit the Bodleian Library, one of the oldest in Europe. You'll be captivated by the narrow lanes and ancient squares of this naturally beautiful city.

Christ Church:

A delight for film buffs of all ages, Christ Church is instantly recognisable as one of the main settings 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 head to the beautiful city of Cambridge. Here you will visit the Senate House of the world-famous University of Cambridge. Formerly used by the Senate Council for important meetings, it is now the venue of choice for student graduation ceremonies. You can explore this special place and discover its important history before venturing to visit the Corpus Clock.

Corpu Clock

Visit the Corpus Clock, a unique invention located outside the Taylor Library at Corpus Christi College, University of Cambridge. Revealed to the world by Stephen Hawking, it is made of a 24-carat gold-plated stainless steel disc and has no numerals to tell the time. Instead, it shows the time by lights shining through individual slits. This unmissable innovation will stay in your mind long after you've left.

Mathematical Bridge

You can also see the Cambridge Mathematical Bridge during your stop. Designed by William Etheridge, it is almost 300 years old and has attracted visitors from all over the world. Its design presents visitors with an intriguing conundrum: it uses only straight timbers, but the bridge arches. It is a must-see.

King's College Chapel

One of the highlights of the trip is a visit to the exquisite King's College Chapel. Used as a symbol of the city of Cambridge, the Chapel is a popular tourist attraction for people from all over the world.
