On Day 2, travel to Oxford for a guided introduction to its historic streets and academic architecture, then continue to Cambridge for a second perspective on collegiate life and riverside character. Your package includes the college admission or admissions confirmed for your departure, although the individual colleges can change because of university activity and closures. Two nights in a 3-star Zone 1 London hotel and breakfast complete the three-day package.

Itinerary
Arrive in London | An independent opening day
Reach London independently and check in at the confirmed 3-star hotel within Zone 1. The rest of the day is left clear, allowing you to find your bearings without joining a tour or following a fixed route. You could explore Bloomsbury, step into a museum or browse a bookshop to echo the academic character of tomorrow's Oxford and Cambridge visit; any such plans are entirely independent. Overnight in London.
Oxford & Cambridge | Two historic university cities
After breakfast, make your way to the confirmed central London departure point. Travel first to Oxford, where a guided walk introduces the historic centre, university traditions and collegiate architecture. Continue to Cambridge for a second guided visit shaped by the city's colleges, lanes and riverside setting. Admission to the college or colleges specified for the confirmed departure is included, subject to university closures and substitutions. Return to London in the evening and stay overnight at the hotel.
A final London pause | Check-out and onward travel
Have breakfast at the hotel and keep the morning free for a calm finish to the trip. There is time for an independent museum visit, a favourite café or a last wander before returning for your bags. The room must be vacated at the check-out time set by the confirmed hotel, while luggage storage remains subject to its availability. From there, make your own way to the next stage of your journey unless a transfer was booked in advance.
