Cambridge River Tours

Cambridge River Tours Traditional punting in Cambridge, England. College 'backs' river tours chauffeured by experienced local guides. Don't miss the best bits of Cambridge!
(15)

Walking tours of Cambridge, led by experienced guides. A punt ride along the 'backs' of the Cambridge Colleges is the only way to experience the hidden magic of our beautiful city. With a wealth of local knowledge and many years experience of Cambridge punting we can ensure that your trip along the backs is an experience that you will remember forever. Whilst every river tour covers as much (or as

little) of the history as you require, each chauffeur offers their personal take on the history and background information and every tour is unique.

The Great Gate of Christ’s College is one of the city’s most impressive College entrances. It underwent a four-year restoration project, completed in 2018, which involved thorough research to accurately replicate the original colours and methods used.

The River Cam in autumn's grace
Reflects the sky in soft embrace
The willows bow with quiet cheer
As golden leaves fall far and near

Not sure why this scene of St Catharine's College Cambridge drew my eye - perhaps the balance within the frame?

This is Trinity College, Cambridge Library, or the Wren Library as it's known.

Designed by famous British architect Sir Christopher Wren - you might recognise his name from from St Paul's Cathedral in London.

The library contains many famous and valuable works, such as Sir Isaac Netwon's Prinicpia Mathematica, some of AA Milne's drawings for Winnie the Pooh and a folio of Shakespear's plays
