In evidenza
Hear the whole story of Cambridge. From rank Romans, through scary Saxons, vile Vikings and nasty Normans, the ‘Cam-bridge’ was at the centre of English history for over a thousand years before the University was even founded. And learn about what 800 years of dreadful Dons and sickening Students have got up to since, in the company of one of our expertly entertaining guides. If you want a long talk about different types of arches we are not for you - if you want to learn by laughing we are!

5A truly wonderful tour of the city of Cambridge.
Alex was absolutely amazing with a wonderful way of explaining all the history of beautiful Cambridge. His knowledge was phenomenal- thank you Alex.
5Great tour with Peter
We had a great time with Peter. He showed us around and told a lot of interesting facts and stories about Cambridge colleges and their students who became famous!
5School trip tour in Cambridge
Alex gave my group of 15 school children a great tour. He was patient, talked slowly and clearly and was very knowledgeable Highly recommend
2Leader lacked in depth...
Leader lacked in depth knowledge and delivery of information monotonic ,rushed and lacking in nuance . Leader politically set against academic institutions which have given the city its beauty and status
5The best tour guide in Cambridge! *****
Met with Peter our tour guide who was so patient with us (after we went to the wrong Locke) he was gracious and kind, and even though the dad jokes kept coming (he was actually very funny) he made our tour of Cambridge such a delight. We were part of a good sized group on a sunny day so he ensured that we could all hear but picked places to stop in the shade - which was much appreciated in heatwave! His facts and back pack full of more facts and photographs had me and my teen gripped! We even tried out his science tour - which was absolutely superb! Peter was extremely friendly and thoughtful when it came to our needs as a group! He also had great recommendations at the end! I absolutely recommend terrible tours!!

About Cambridge
Cambridge is an English university city on the River Cam, famed for its ancient colleges, King's College Chapel and punts gliding along the Backs.
The university, founded in the early thirteenth century, still shapes the centre, with college courts, gatehouses and chapels opening off narrow streets. King's College Chapel, with its fan-vaulted ceiling and tall windows, is the best known, and Trinity's Great Court and the Bridge of Sighs at St John's are close behind. The Fitzwilliam Museum holds antiquities and paintings, and the market square has traded for centuries.
Top-ranked sights in Cambridge: King's College Chapel, Trinity College, Mathematical Bridge.
