Cambridge is one of the most beautiful cities in Britain and is steeped in history and tradition. You can explore the colleges of Cambridge University with their stunning architecture, visit the magnificent museums and galleries, or wander around the traditional daily market outside the City's Guildhall. Visitors can take in the atmosphere down the quaint narrow winding cobbled streets or enjoy a picnic along the famous 'Backs' of the River Cam where punting is a must. There is also an open-top touring bus that enables passengers to see the many sights of Cambridge in comfort without walking. Visit The Orchard at Grantchester, open 7 days a week, and enjoy the unique English experience of morning coffee, lunches and afternoon teas served under the fruit trees and take in the beauty of the surroundings sitting in traditional deck chairs.
