Chose this tour because of the good ratings. Booking was easy. Megan was an excellent guide. We were a fairly large group, and yet she managed the group professionally, spoke clearly, had eye contact and shared interesting stories about the places we visited. It was a sunny but really chilly day, and walking around was such a good form of exercise and a fun way of seeing Cambridge. Do choose the option with entry to King’s College Chapel - it’s gorgeous! Also, make time for the Even Song service (beautiful choir). If you travel by train, exit the train station and cross over to Station Road to take a Stagecoach bus towards the city centre. Alight at John Lewis and following the signs, or using the City Mapper app, find your way to King’s College, diagonally opposite Great St Mary’s Church. (The way back is via a bus near John Lewis or Uber. Loos are available at M & S Food at Market Square, behind Great St Mary’s Church.) Cambridge is charming and very walkable. Make sure to have good walking shoes and check the weather to have the right clothing on. Enjoy!
Annie was a wonderful guide. She brought life to the different colleges and landmarks around Cambridge with interesting stories of the past and shared personal experiences as well. Great experience and worth every penny! Would recommend the add-on for King's College chapel - beautiful place that left us in awe
Excellent! Our guide Tea was very informative, spoke clearly and has a great personality.
