So much to see and learn

5.00Did the tour through University Arms hotel. I visit Cambridge often for work and this was my first opportunity to do a proper walking tour. Our guide was Tony and he was phenomenal! Funny, satiric, and deeply knowledgeable. Was fun and interesting, replete with British humor and easily kept the entire group's attention! Would heartily recommend.
Wonderful private tour with Mary – perfect for first-time visitors!

5.00We had a fantastic private tour with Mary on February. As first-time visitors to Cambridge, we couldn‘t have asked for a better introduction to this beautiful city. Mary was warm, friendly, and immediately made us feel welcome. Throughout the two-hour tour, she shared fascinating stories about Cambridge’s history, its famous colleges, and the scientists and scholars who studied here. We especially appreciated: · Clear and easy-to-understand English – Mary spoke at a perfect pace, which was very helpful for us as non-native speakers. Our son also enjoyed practising his listening! · Excellent knowledge – From the Old Cavendish Laboratory to the Eagle Pub, Mary brought each sight to life with interesting historical details. · Perfect timing – We had pre-booked our King‘s College Chapel tickets for the 11:00–11:15 slot, and Mary smoothly incorporated it into the tour. The Chapel was breathtaking! · Flexibility and local tips – Mary also gave us great recommendations for the rest of our day in Cambridge. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, kind, and professional guide for your Cambridge visit, we highly recommend Mary. Thank you, Mary, for making our first Cambridge experience so memorable!

5.00This tour was absolutely fantastic. Our guide was Tony, and he kept us informed and amused throughout. He had immense knowledge of dates and facts, and kept testing us on what he'd said, which was fun. We walked at a sensible pace, and the walk culminated at a pub, which Tony gave us a discount card for.
