Cambridgeshire is home to the world-famous Cambridge University which has taught some of the finest academic minds in the world. Cambridgeshire has the traditional beauty of both the city of Cambridge (AKA cycle city due to the preference for using bicycles as the main way of travelling around) and the modern city of Peterborough. In 1974 the old county of Huntingdonshire was incorporated into Cambridgeshire along with its county town - Huntingdon. Flowing through Cambridgeshire is the river Cam, famous for the Cambridge students' punting along it.
Cam is a Celtic word describing rivers and meaning crooked or winding but the city was originally called Grantebridge (ie the bridge over the river Granta one of the sources of the Cam). Cambridgeshire is part of the rich and fertile Fen country and was once regularly flooded. The Isle of Ely rising above the surrounding marshes was often marooned in water. The Isle of Ely has an 11th Century Cathedral and was the hiding place of the famed freedom fighter Hereward The Wake the 'last of the English' who made the Capital of the Fens famous.
Any town centre can be used as your base if you would like to take part in a treasure hunt, Spy Mission or take part in spy-themed team building activities.
If you would prefer an adrenaline-fuelled multiactivity day, head to the countryside where you can combine motorised activities (such as blindfold driving, 4x4 driving and quad bikes), field sports (such as clay shooting, archery and laser clays) and classic and original teambuilding challenges.
