STN Airport to Hertfordshire Zoo and Cambridge: Day trip

Hertfordshire Zoo thrills with treetop walks, roaring big cats, playful shows, and unforgettable wildlife encounters. Imagine a family-run sanctuary where conservation meets adventure—Hertfordshire Zoo is immersive, playful, and unforgettable. Wander themed habitats like Lion Pride Lands or Jaguar Jungle, then climb Tiger Treetops for sky-high views of prowling predators. Step into the Reptile Temple to meet giant anacondas and crocodiles, or watch parrots and macaws wheel through the air in a dazzling bird show. Kids will love the JungleBarn playzone, animatronic dinosaurs, and crazy golf, while adults can enjoy peaceful strolls through exotic gardens. End your visit feeding penguins or greeting a sloth—close-up encounters that make this zoo truly special.

Cambridge enchants with Gothic chapels, riverside punting, and college quads steeped in centuries of genius. A town where courtyards whisper centuries of brilliance, Cambridge is where Newton and Hawking once walked. Step inside King’s College Chapel, its fan-vaulted ceiling among England’s finest. Then drift along the River Cam on a punt, gliding past Gothic spires, willows, and the Bridge of Sighs. Stroll through the colleges and courts of Trinity, St John’s, and Clare, or pause at the Fitzwilliam Museum’s art treasures. For hidden inspiration, peek into the Wren Library where priceless manuscripts rest. End with a sticky Chelsea bun from Fitzbillies before meeting your driver once again.
