What to expect

The rivalry between the UK's oldest universities dates back centuries and, on this full-day Tour, you'll be exploring the historical cities behind these two prestigious institutions.

Explore Cambridge, the location of the University of Oxford's ancient and historic rival, the University of Cambridge. Founded in 1209, it is the second-oldest university in the English-speaking world. Learn about the history and origins of the university, which was founded, ironically, by a group of rebel Oxford Scholars. A city renowned for its unique, ornate buildings and culture, Cambridge is a historic city full of character. You'll see the best that Cambridge has to offer on a walking tour of the city with your Expert Guide.

Find out why Oxford is known as 'The City of Dreaming Spires' as you enjoy a walking tour of the city with your expert tour guide, who will bring the history of this beautiful city to life. Along the way, you will see architecture from every period in English history, from early Saxon right the way through to Gothic Revival. This eclectic mix of buildings is unique to Oxford, as it is the only place in the country where you'll find structures from every period in English history. In Christ Church college, you will be visiting one of the University's most prestigious colleges. Founded by Henry VIII in 1532, Christ Church also functions as the UK's smallest cathedral.
