We love Cambridge, and believe that the best way to experience it is on foot with a guide who appreciates its treasures. We’ve been leading our acclaimed Round Church guided walks for over 25 years, and work with a dedicated team of local guides to bring you a small-group walking experience which is personal, engaging and unforgettable. Our approach is a little different from a standard tourist tour: we believe that ideas matter, and focus on how a small number of big ideas have shaped the university over eight eventful centuries. Through stories about famous Cambridge alumni like Isaac Newton, William Wilberforce and John Milton, we explore subjects such as the emergence of the university from Christian monasteries, the Protestant Reformation, the development of modern science, movements for the rule of law and religious freedom, and the campaign to abolish the British slave trade. Join us on a walk to see just how much Cambridge’s story of saints, sinners, sceptics, and scholars has to say to us today. Walking tours meet inside the Round Church at 2:15pm on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. They last 90-120 minutes.
