Fantastic 5.0
It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Although the weather was chilly, we were provided with warm bottles and blankets, which made the ride comfortable and cozy. The guide was excellent in his explanations, sharing fascinating facts about each university as we passed by. He also recommended some must-try food spots, and they turned out to be fantastic. The ride itself was smooth, and we had plenty of time to take photos. Watching the adorable ducks in the water added to the charm. The majestic buildings were truly impressive, especially when paired with the engaging stories behind them. It’s definitely a must-do activity when in Cambridge.

Both Cambridge and Oxford was lovely, located 2 hours drive away (by coach) from London. Our guide was Dan and she's very clear and informative. Coach was comfortable. I personally prefer Cambridge over Oxford due to lesser crowds. Limited time given to explore each places. Overall this day tour was enjoyable

Easy to use, app is simple and provides good info on train routes etc. A bit pricey at first, but you if you don’t have definite plans and prebooked train tickets months before, will recommend getting this to avoid variable prices.

The BritRailPass is so worth it. Easy to activate and use the QR codes for each day. You can take your time and be assured that you can board the train at the time that you prefer. There are routes though that are really popular and crowded. Train fares are quite expensive if you buy them on the day itself so the flexibility helped a lot. We traveled around UK with our large luggages. just make sure to board the coach with the luggage compartment.

While it wasn't very useful within London itself, as the subway is the primary mode of transport, it was incredibly convenient when traveling to Oxford and Gloucester! Being able to ride the Heathrow Express is also a great perk!

I purchased a three-day train ticket this time. The three days don't have to be used consecutively, which makes the itinerary more flexible. You'll receive a QR code by registering your usage dates on the website via the email link. Simply scan the code at the station gate to enter. Please register at least 2 days in advance of your travel date. You'll get one QR code per day, so I registered for 3 different codes. On the first day, I traveled from the airport to Paddington, then to Bristol. On the second day, I visited Bath and Oxford. On the third day, I returned to London from Bristol. I recommend reserving a seat for the journey from Bristol to London, as the train tends to be crowded. The ticket includes one free seat reservation, which I found to be sufficient, as there were plenty of seats on the other train journeys.

The hotel is located on the right-hand side when you exit Cambridge train station. It's about a 30-minute train ride to STN Airport. Walking to King's College takes approximately 30 minutes, or about 10 minutes by bus for 3 pounds.

What to know before visiting Cambridge

Cambridge at a glance

Cambridge is a compact city with a steady rhythm of visitors peaking in mid-winter and quiet periods at the end of the year. Tours are the leading category on Klook, and bookings show a clear high-season pulse through the July–September window.

When to visit and what to expect on price

Klook booking data shows demand peaks in July and is lowest in December. Prices on Klook drift modestly through the late summer and autumn months, then rise toward spring before hitting the highest typical levels in May; the cheapest month on Klook is typically November. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider travelling in November or the quieter winter months around December; if you want the peak-season atmosphere and the busiest touring options, aim for July–September. Note that demand and price don’t move in perfect lockstep here: the busiest months around July also have relatively low median prices in Klook’s monthly series, while the priciest period appears later in May.

Tips for travellers from Australia

Most travellers from Australia tend to book activities about 11 days ahead on Klook, so you can be reasonably flexible but it helps to plan before busy months. For peak travel in July, lock in popular tours earlier (for example within the typical early-booking window) to secure options; if you’re after bargains and fewer people, target November and book a little closer to travel. Use Klook to compare tours and secure bookings ahead of time for peace of mind.
