Cambridge: nido de espías durante 5 siglos
Joined 2022
Un tour a pie que revela cómo Cambridge ha sido un nido de espias durante 5 siglos. Desde la época de la dinastía Tudor hasta los conflictos armados del siglo veintiuno varias agencias de espionaje han reclutado personas que residieron en Cambridge. Aunque cueste creerlo, algunas de las acciones de estos agentes cambiaron el curso de importantes acontecimientos históricos . Atención a quienes son fans del agente 007: en este tour os espera una sorpresa (o mejor dicho más de una) respecto a él.

Introducción al espionaje inglés.
St John's College: The Great Gate
Empecemos por el principio: los hombres de múltiples habilidades suelen tener varias caras...
Trinity College: The Great Gate
Grandes aves volaron desde este nido de espías. Nada ha sido igual desde entonces.
Senate House Hill
Unos espías van y otros vienen. Unos son descubiertos y otros no. Unos mueren y otros no.
King's Parade
El mundo del espionaje ha cambiado más bien poco con el correr de los siglos. Hay que oírlo para creerlo.
Frente al Pembroke College
Hay algunas decisiones que tienen implicaciones masivas. La huella del papel puede ser más honda que la huella de sangre. Hablamos desde fuera del college porque tú y yo estamos fuera, siempre estaremos fuera de estos asuntos.
The Old Cavendish Laboratory
¿Se puede ser bueno, feo y malo a la vez? Ya lo creo que sí. Cuando vengas en el tour, tú decides cuál de los tres rasgos aplica más.

Acabamos en Market Square con un toque final referente a este círculo de gentes poco conocidas.

Tour Important Information
Recordemos que el clima en Inglaterra es muy variable e impredecible, así que nunca está de demás mirar el pronóstico del tiempo, tener un chubasquero a mano y llevar zapatos cómodos para caminar.
Una vez empezado el tour no haremos pausa para ir al baño.
Para personas mayores de 14 años. Es improbable que personas menores de esa edad puedan entender las explicaciones del contexto en que se se desarrollan los eventos, personas e ideas. Si aun así un menor viene con sus padre/madre/familiar adulto, tendrá que estar a la altura de los adultos asistentes.

Reviews
“Great Tour, Great Guide, Great Time!”
I went on the CS Lewis tour and it was a great experience. Would highly recommend taking any tour with this guide, as he is very knowledgeable and conversational! My only regret is that I only had time to do one tour!
Manuel S.
Thank you. It was a pleasure to show you how Cambridge has links with C S Lewis. Feel free to come on another tour next time you come to Cambridge!
