The day begins with Cambridge with its most spectacular Gothic buildings.
Then to Oxford across the county of Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and Oxfordshire.
The visit to these two enchanting Universities, leaves a deep impression on the immense intellectual past and history.
The architectural contrast between the elegant spires, cobbled streets, ancient colleges and green courtyards, cannot be easily forgotten.

It involves sitting on the bus for extremely long hours and there are many bending roads. There is a total travelling time of well over 5 hours and visiting time is limited due to the long distances between the two universities and London
