Go punting in Cambridge and visit the different colleges around the University of Cambridge where notable alumni include Isaac Newton, Alan Turing, and Robert Oppenheimer!
Castle Mound
We visited Castle Mound first thing for a good walk and a good overlooking view around.

We passed by Newton’s Apple Tree in front of Trinity College!

King’s College
We intended to go inside King’s College Chapel at 5 pm but it was already closed by this time because of the summer break.

We enjoyed an Italian meal for lunch. 🙂
Enjoyed coffee as we capped our day in Cambridge!
I highly recommend going punting as you will get a good view of the colleges and the bridges with a tour guide who knows the University of Cambridge and its history so well.
We enjoyed punting and listening to our tour guide who made it a very fun educational tour for us.
You can also book your Punting Tour online through Klookhere to avoid the queue. Cambridge is packed with tourists walking around!
We enjoyed walking around and going inside colleges, too! You can also opt to book a Cambridge University Walking Tour through Klookhere which already includes admission to King’s College and King’s College Chapel.

We had a lovely time going punting and walking around Cambridge. Tell me about your Cambridge experience! 🙂
Natasha was a full-time banker who got to take a breather when she traveled. She loves the outdoors so much. She is currently in the UK pursuing postgraduate studies!
