Descrição
Explore the historic university towns of Oxford and Cambridge on a guided day trip from London. Visit the Bodleian Library, Christ Church, the Corpus Clock, and King’s College Chapel.
Begin your journey in Oxford, where you’ll follow in the footsteps of famous students like C.S. Lewis and Bill Clinton. Stroll through the college courtyards and cobbled lanes, taking in the iconic ‘dreaming spires’ and the Bodleian Library, one of Europe’s oldest libraries.
Next, head to Christ Church, a major filming location for the Harry Potter films. Marvel at the magical grandeur of the Great Hall, used as the setting for Hogwarts.
After exploring Oxford, make your way to the beautiful city of Cambridge. Visit Senate House at the University of Cambridge, once used for important meetings and now the location for students’ degree ceremonies.
Continue to the Corpus Clock, a unique invention outside the Taylor Library at Corpus Christi College. Revealed by Stephen Hawking, it is made from a 24-carat gold-plated stainless steel disc and has no numbers to tell the time. Instead, it shows the time through lights that shine through individual slits.
Finally, visit the exquisite King’s College Chapel, a symbol of Cambridge. Admire its gothic architecture, huge stained glass windows, and the world’s largest fan vault.
