Insider Tips for Cambridge

  • Beat the crowds by exploring Cambridge's famous colleges early in the morning or late in the afternoon, when the tourist crowds are thinner, and you can enjoy the serene beauty of the historic buildings and manicured gardens in peace.
  • Experience Cambridge from a different perspective by going punting on the River Cam. Hire a punt or join a guided tour to glide along the scenic waterways, passing by historic colleges, picturesque bridges, and lush green meadows. For a quieter experience, consider punting early in the morning or during the off-peak season.
  • Cambridge is known for its bicycle-friendly streets and network of cycling paths, making it easy to navigate and explore on two wheels. Rent a bike from one of the many cycle hire shops in the city and pedal your way to iconic landmarks, scenic parks or – if you’re particularly energetic – the charming villages in the surrounding countryside.
