Overview
We’ve been leading our acclaimed Christian Heritage 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. We aim to give you a feel for some of Cambridge's most iconic and influential spots, both on and off the beaten track. 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. Weaving together stories about the Cambridge characters who transformed the world (such as Isaac Newton, William Wilberforce and John Milton), our guides will lead you through 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.
Meeting and Pickup
We meet inside the Round Church on Bridge Street. Upon arrival, please come inside the church and check-in at the welcome desk.

Tours will not be able to enter colleges during University exam term (late April to end of June). The tour route takes you through the centre of Cambridge, which includes viewing the exteriors of several colleges.
Due to college restrictions, visitors with dogs will need to remain outside any colleges visited.
Children under 16 must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
The tour involves walking at a moderate to fast pace – please contact the provider to arrange a private tour if you require a slower walking pace.
