Why travel from London Heathrow Airport to Cambridge
Cambridge is a city of stone gateways, willow-lined water and world-famous colleges, set in flat fenland north of London. Heathrow Airport to Cambridge private transfer links its busiest airport to that quiet scholarly world, a smoother route than an underground ride and a mainline train. You arrive by sedan or minivan at your college, hotel or lab, with luggage still beside you. Evenings suit a drink in an old riverside pub or a choral evensong in a college chapel, and the surrounding fens and villages such as Grantchester reward a slower second day.
- Walk along the Backs to see King's College Chapel and its soaring fan-vaulted ceiling.
- Take a punt on the River Cam beneath the bridges of the old colleges.
- Visit the Fitzwilliam Museum for antiquities, paintings and manuscripts.
