'To talk of many things:
Of shoes - and ships - and sealing-wax -
Of cabbages - and kings - '
The Walrus & The Carpenter ~ Lewis Carroll
Our 45 minute College Backs Tour offers the ideal introduction to
Cambridge’s long and eventful history. Discover how the city has
evolved from medieval market town to world-class centre for education
whilst enjoying spectacular views from the river.
No one showcases Cambridge like us. Each season we select and train a
group of guides who have a passion for history and a talent for
sharing it with our customers. From the gothic splendour of King’s
College Chapel to the classical elegance of the Wren Library, your
guide will ensure that you don’t miss a thing.
We are open each day from 9.00 until dusk throughout the year,
conditions permitting. Our guides are at your service come rain or
shine, so why not pay us a visit to experience Cambridge’s most
popular tour? We run regular public tours (in shared punts) and these
can be joined on a walk-up basis, but should you wish to have your own
punt, we also offer a private tour booking service. Please see below
for further details on both options.
