(Subject to Option Inclusions)

Itinerary

Darwin College
Pass-by Only

As you begin your tour, admire the peaceful islands of Darwin College in the background of the pond – one of Cambridge’s newer colleges, yet full of character.

Slide in front of the historic pub where Pink Floyd is said to have first started playing music. Then gently move under the first bridge of our tour, with the river guiding the way.

Mathematical Bridge
Pass-by Only

Sit back and appreciate your excellent view of the bridge that somehow manages to get a graceful arch from a series of straight timbers!
