3 things to see
Cambridge’s ancient colleges, riverside Backs, and open greens like Parker’s Piece are free to wander, and the scholarly atmosphere costs nothing to absorb. Some colleges charge a small entry fee in peak season, so walking the lanes and the Backs is the budget move. It pairs naturally with Oxford for an English university circuit, and it makes an easy cheap day trip by train from London. Spring and autumn are quieter and gentler on the wallet than peak summer.
