Situated less than an hour from London and easily accessible by car or train, Cambridge is home to one of the world's oldest universities and is filled to the brim with memorable attractions. At Cambridge University you can take a guided tour of the King's College Chapel and the Fitzwilliam Museum (art and antiquities), before strolling through the Cambridge University Botanic Garden.

There are several other impressive colleges and churches you can visit on a guided walking tour, including Christ's College, Clare College, and Great Saint Mary's Church. The town is filled with other interesting museums – you would need several days to do them all justice. When you need a break from historic attractions, you can go punting on the River Cam.
