5.00I really enjoyed this tour — it was longer than I expected. Matt did a great job sharing information about the colleges’ history in a light and pleasant way. I even took notes on what he said once I got home.

5.00We highly recommend Let's Go Punting for anyone visiting Cambridge! The whole experience was smooth, relaxing, and truly the best way to see the beautiful college backs. We were so grateful that they thoughtfully provided blankets—it was a lovely touch that kept us comfortable. The highlight was definitely our guide, James. He is an absolute asset to the team! He was kind, friendly, and an amazing storyteller, explaining the history and architecture of Cambridge with incredible knowledge and enthusiasm. Thank you, James, for making our trip so special!
Perfect punt tour. Thankyou

5.00Excellent punt tour guided and driven by Ben R very friendly and informative. Great help on and off punt if you need it ! He had Encyclopedic knowledge of colleges and bridges.
Great views but unfortunately not as much information about Cambridge and it's colleges as I hoped.

3.00Despite the rain, the views where great. Unfortunately less information about Cambridge and the colleges as I hoped. Not sure if it was because of inexperience of our guide, or that I just was unlucky to be in a boat with a couple that weren't that proficient in English and the guide catered for that. Overall happy with the experience, but will look at other reviews to see of I'll book this company again, or go or a different one when I will re-visit Cambridge with my wife.
