(COVID TEST) Private College Backs Punt Tour
Private Cambridge Tours
"The time has come," the Walrus said,
To talk of many things:
Of shoes — and ships — and sealing-wax —
Of cabbages — and kings —"
From The Walrus and Carpenter (Lewis Carroll)
Our 45-minute private College Backs punt 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 of learning whilst enjoying breath-taking views from the river.
No one showcases Cambridge like us. Each season we hand pick and train a group of river tour 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.
Providing a more personalised experience, a private tour offers you the exclusivity of your own traditional punt, reserved for your preferred time. With the punt chauffeur all yours, you can decide how much of the commentary you wish to hear and ask as many questions as you like.
