Travelling Around Cambridge

Cambridge is close to other cities like Brighton and London which are definitely awesome places where you can have so much fun. Cambridge is a high-class area and if you have done exploring Cambridge, well then, you might want to explore other parts of the UK when you have finished your semester or just the weekend. You can easily take the train to any places you want to go.

Get your railcard

Having a student Railcard (16-25) is a must for every student as it reduces the fare of the train ticket a lot and lowers the burden of travelling around the UK. It means you can explore many places you may not have been able to and you don’t have to spend so much money. The Railcard costs £30 and lasts for 1 year.

Get the Trainline app

This app shows you the time of the train and allows you to buy train ticket online with 0.75 pounds booking fee. You can easily click on your phone and check what time you have to catch your train and buy train tickets real quick which saves you having to stand in line at the train station.

Pack less stuff, have more fun!

You may get tired if you travel with loads of stuff in your backpack so make sure what you bring along only what is useful and keep your backpack as light as possible

Off you go, have fun!
