What travelers think of our London experiences
What you’ll do
Just a short train ride from London, you'll find Cambridge, the world-famous university city that's steeped in history, culture, and academia. Can you picture yourself relaxing on manicured lawns or punting lazily along the River Cam and strolling through the grounds of the stunning university buildings? We can.
You could explore the dramatic architecture of the university's famous King's College Chapel and the Bridge of Sighs, then wander through a colorful market and walk along The Backs.
Since you're in the city home to one of the world's most prestigious universities, it seems wrong not to pay homage to the iconic Trinity College Library, where you'll find an original manuscript of Winnie the Pooh and Newton's "Principia Mathematica" on display!
During your escapades, you and your London host might like to pop into a cozy British pub, where you can enjoy classic food and a pint of real ale. If that's not your vibe, you could always head to one of the city's cafes where locally-grown produce is served.
