Enjoy a classic Cambridge punting experience on the River Cam. Relax as your punter guides the boat past the famous college ‘Backs,’ historic bridges, and some of the city’s most iconic university views. This is the highlight of the day and is included in your tour price.
See the beautiful ‘Backs’ of Cambridge—lush college gardens and riverside views that make this city so famous. You’ll experience these views during the punting route and nearby riverside walkways.
Pass by one of Cambridge’s most famous landmarks. We’ll enjoy great photo opportunities and views from outside, and you’ll have free time nearby to explore the area at your own pace (college entry is not included).
Take in the atmosphere around Trinity College—one of Cambridge’s most iconic colleges. We’ll view the historic surroundings from outside and you’ll have optional free time to explore the nearby streets and riverside paths.
Enjoy free time in central Cambridge to browse the Market Square, grab a snack or coffee, and soak up the city’s lively atmosphere. Great spot for souvenirs and quick local bites.
If time allows, you can visit the Fitzwilliam Museum during your free time. It’s one of Cambridge’s top museums, with art and antiques collections. Entry is free, but visits are self-guided and depend on the day’s timing.
