Explore two award winning film locations - St John's College Cambridge, backdrop for Stephen Hawking biopic "The Theory of Everything", and Bletchley Park, former Government Code and Cypher School and one of Britain's best kept secrets, featured in the award winning "The Imitation Game".St John's College (film location: "The Theory of Everything")
St John's College was founded in 1511 and is one of the oldest and largest colleges in Cambridge. Famous alumni include William Wordsworth, William Wilberforce and Douglas Adams. More recently it was used as the film location for "The Theory of Everything", the Stephen Hawking biopic starring Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones.
You'll be taken on a walking tour through the narrow streets of the old city to St John's College, before joining a local guide for a tour of the college, visiting The Chapel, Old Library and the beautiful Bridge of Sighs, one of Cambridge's main tourist attractions.
Bletchley Park (film location: "The Imitation Game")
Once Britain's Best-Kept Secret, today Bletchley Park is a unique heritage site and vibrant tourist attraction. One of the most fascinating and historically significant sites in Britain, it was here at Bletchley Park that Alan Turing, recently played by Benedict Cumberbatch in "The Imitation Game", led the team of code-breakers that cracked the German Enigma code during WWII.
Visitors can explore, experience and enjoy the top-secret world of iconic WWII Code-breaking Huts and Blocks set within its atmospheric Victorian estate.
Open daily, the Café in Hut 4 is available for you to refuel and enjoy a delicious, freshly cooked hot meal made on-site, or choose from a selection of sandwiches, paninis, salads, soup or jacket potatoes (not included).
The state of the art VOX Radioguide® system is used during the walking sections of this tour: guests are issued with a personal headset ensuring they never miss a word of the guide's commentary.
