We'll walk through the historic City Centre and the Backs, seeing gorgeous landmarks.

YOU'LL HEAR

- how Cambridge University began as a bunch of religious schools more than 800 years ago, because of a bloody riot in Oxford

- how it has taught and hosted countless famous people who changed the world

- how a religious scholar scribbling atop a tower here ended up shaking the whole of Europe

- The despicable reason why our two greatest colleges are bitter rivals

YOU'LL SEE:

- the FRONT QUAD of a historic college (if open that day)

- signs of a ghost story in the ancient pub where the discovery of DNA was announced

- the RAF bar and the most famous bridge in China (really!)

- a small 19th century lab that was once the world's greatest science centre

- stunning LANDMARKS

- charming BRIDGES with romantic histories

ABOVE ALL: I'll make sure you ENJOY your tour. That's the most important part of the experience. You'll remember this tour, because the stories are so fun and amazing.

A Must-Do in Cambridge

The tour with David was absolutely fantastic. David is incredibly passionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic. What makes him stand out is not just how much he knows, but how he shares it : in a way that’s engaging, funny, and completely accessible to anyone! The tour felt fluid, funny, and perfectly adapted. He happily answered all the questions, even broader ones about life in Cambridge, and shared personal insights that made the experience even richer. Even though I’ve been living in Cambridge for a few months, I learned so many new stories and fascinating anecdotes thanks to David that I now appreciate Cambridge in a completely different way. Every corner has more meaning. I am so grateful I have booked this tour. I would recommend this tour to absolutely anyone!
Great Tour!

Was a great guide, lots of good stories and historical facts. Many things you wouldn't know about or go look at unless you did lots of research. Ended up being 2 hours and we ended the tour at a free service that starts at 5 letting us go see the inside which we wouldn't have otherwise. It ended up being just me and another couple so it felt very personal. I would recommend for anyone interested in history and stories or anyone that doesn't have a plan for Cambridge.

Our tour guide David was fantastic and gave us a wonderful experience with the perfect balance of history and good humour. The tour far exceeded our expectations and no hesitation in recommending David. A lovely friendly guy who made sure we all had the absolute best time.
