Cambridge at Leisure & Strawberry Fair
Enjoy a fantastic day out in one of England’s most beautiful and historic cities, with the added colour, atmosphere and entertainment of the famous Cambridge Strawberry Fair.
Travel in comfort with Richard Taylor Travel and spend the day exploring Cambridge entirely at your own pace. Whether you want to discover the city’s historic streets and world-famous university colleges, soak up the lively atmosphere of Strawberry Fair, or combine a little of both, the choice is completely yours.
Discover Cambridge
Cambridge is a wonderful destination for a leisurely day out, offering an irresistible combination of magnificent architecture, fascinating history, independent shopping, riverside scenery and inviting cafés and restaurants.
Take a stroll through the historic city centre and admire the impressive university buildings and colleges that have made Cambridge famous around the world. Wander along picturesque streets, browse the shops around the city centre and Market Square, or find somewhere for a relaxing lunch or afternoon treat.
No visit to Cambridge would be complete without spending some time beside the River Cam. Watch the traditional punts glide along the water, enjoy a peaceful riverside walk or perhaps treat yourself to a punting experience and see some of Cambridge’s most famous sights from a completely different perspective.
Experience Strawberry Fair
Taking place on Midsummer Common, Strawberry Fair brings an extra burst of energy and entertainment to Cambridge. This long-established community event traditionally attracts visitors for a colourful day of live music, performances, stalls, food and entertainment.
Explore the fair at your leisure, discover different performers and entertainment areas, browse an eclectic selection of stalls and enjoy the lively festival atmosphere. With plenty happening throughout the day, you can spend as much or as little time at the fair as you wish before continuing your exploration of Cambridge.
Your Day, Your Way
One of the best things about this trip is its flexibility. There is no organised itinerary once we arrive, leaving you free to create the day that suits you.
You could spend the majority of your visit enjoying Strawberry Fair, concentrate on sightseeing and shopping in Cambridge, or divide your time between the two. It makes this an excellent day out for couples, friends, families and solo travellers alike.
