  1. Christine_P

    Loved the walking tour, small group so lots of chance to ask Imo questions. So much history delivered in style by Imo, thank you. Kings Chapel was spectacular in scale and beauty. Punting with Ollie was fun and again very informative

  2. Taly_P

    We had a wonderful experience!
    Iona was an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable, patient, shared interesting facts as well as from her personal experiences, answered all our questions.
    Ollie was our punter, also great, shared interesting information and created a great atmosphere.
    Thank you both!

    Great, lively overview of the Cambridge campus by a recent graduate who wanted a bit more time around campus before accepting a job in London. I was surprised to learn of people on my remote family tree who had roles in establishing colleges there.

    Becky was a great guide. She was fun and knowledgeable. I thoroughly enjoyed the history she shared about the town and the University, and loved to hear her personal experience with the school. We had a great time!

  5. Dariush_M

    It was amazing tour with guide Emily around the colleges and some parts of city following by the punting tour.
    Cambridge is incredible and highly recommended to visiting.

  6. Polly_C

    A really informative and interesting walking tour, our guide Tommy was great and so was Matt our punter. This is a really good way to see the city and learn about the university as well.

  7. Pero_u

    Very nice experience. Plenty of stories and useful information from our guide. Great value for money.

  8. Ana_M

    We had a lovely afternoon .
    The walking tour gave us a variety of insights into things we had previously not known about Cambridge.
    The putting was a lovely and relaxing way to end our day!

  9. Wenjie_C

    It was a great tour. The walking tour guide (Francesco) was great, knowledgable and fun. Very happy with the tour.
    Punting tour guide (Ollie) was also great. The punting tour is so relaxing after the walking tour. Good rest on your foot. Very peaceful ride.

    We got to Cambridge well before our booked time, however we were unable to find parking by the time the tour started. We were only able to pick up the punt for the tour along the river. You should be aware that parking is extremely difficult in Cambridge.

  11. Ankur_M

    Pros : It was a good experience.
    Cons : A short tour from outside of buildings for that price. Could have been more fun if we could have visited inside buildings.

  12. Genevieve_B

    Our guide, Justin (French student) was informative and brought stories to life. I would highly recommend Justin and this tour.

  13. Jessica_J

    Quite a memorable time! Our tour guide, Justin, was quite personable and knowledgeable! We moved at a fairly easy pace but covered a lot of ground. The punting tour was great as well; a very relaxing follow up to the walking tour. The guide was great and even turned us around for someone who dropped their phone in the river so she could try to find it even though there was hardly any chance. (Tip: Keep your phone inside the boat at all times. The river can get deep and you cannot see more than an inch into it.)

    Need to coordinate with the various pieces more. We had trouble getting on to the punt given changes in times

  15. Vishal_M

    The tour was very nice. The co-ordination does require some improvement though. The tour included punting and the guide showed the place in the middle of the tour. We had to go on our own to the point later on but had a lot of difficulty finding the place and missed our slots. We were included in the later slot which was an hour later.

    We had a really fantastic tour with Francesco. Francesco is an Italian Archeologist, and luckily he could sumarize what he had just told in English to my beginners students. He has been very friendly, detailed, and absolutely competent. Thank you Francesco for this amazing tour. It has been a real pleasure! Unfortunately, the best we got with the tour, the worst we got with the punting tour. The punter was completely unexperienced, we got stuck in the Cam, the current was really strong and we couldn’t get back to the dock. We rowed with umbrellas to get back to the dock. We were 30 minutes late. No excuses came from the organization, neither someone came to help us. It was a total disaster. Punting tour is wonderful, if the punter can punt!

    Thanks to Chris’ expert guidesmanship, this was an EXCELLENT tour. He is the model tourguide — smart and funny and a pro at managing us tourists. He had lots of great info and dispensed knowledge that was the right balance of light and interesting, but has a serious depth of background that made him ready to answer any question or dig deeper in on any issue we asked about. Thanks for a highlight of my trip to Cambridge!

  18. Jane_J

    Tiffany was our guide. She was personable and did a very interesting tour. Seeing inside Kings College was fascinating. We also did the punting tour which was so much fun. Definitely add the punting tour to your package. It was a beautiful day and the boat ride was so enjoyable.

  19. Judialjudi

    Very informative and entertaining walking tour with Francesco, must do when in the area, highly recommend!

    We had a wonderful time! Olivia, our tour guide, was knowledgeable and sweet.
    We could not have learned so much about Cambridge on our own.
