Review for: Punting Tour Only

It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Although the weather was chilly, we were provided with warm bottles and blankets, which made the ride comfortable and cozy. The guide was excellent in his explanations, sharing fascinating facts about each university as we passed by. He also recommended some must-try food spots, and they turned out to be fantastic. The ride itself was smooth, and we had plenty of time to take photos. Watching the adorable ducks in the water added to the charm. The majestic buildings were truly impressive, especially when paired with the engaging stories behind them. It’s definitely a must-do activity when in Cambridge.

Review for: Punting Tour Only

I only went on the punting tour and nothing else. The guide was great at answering my questions and the experience was fun and educational. Sadly, it took a bit of time to get on our punt because their was a problem with their system and klook's system. Overall, this was a pretty good experience. It is worth the money and I had a great time.

We had a fantastic day exploring Cambridge! The walking tour was engaging and informative, led by a local guide who brought the colleges and history to life with charm and insight. Special thanks to our punter, who was not only skilled but shared fascinating stories and facts throughout the river tour. Both guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience truly memorable. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a deeper, fun look into this beautiful university town.

Nice Tour with lots of history and interesting stories about Cambridge and people which made it so special. Joe was very pleasant and gave us a lovely commentary throughout the tour with some excellent tips about the city. Punting Tour is a nice way to look the colleges closer and on a nice sunny day, this was a pleasure.

It's very interesting, but you have to pay special attention to the place where you exchange tickets. It's at the end near the Mathematical Bridge, because there are two ticket offices 15 minutes' walk apart, so please pay special attention.

Lovely walking and punting tour. Our guide Francesco was informative, sharing as much information to all of us. Pace of the 90mins walking tour was just right. Glad we did the punting experience as we get to see more along the ride.

Enjoy the local student tour guide's detailed explanation of the school's history. The tour guide will lead you to the scenic spots for about one and a half hours, and take a canoe ride for about half an hour. The scenery and environment are elegant and beautiful. It is one of the must-visit places in Cambridge.
