An ethical tour in its infancy , but very worth while

5.00It was an ethical tour with high values that drew us to this community based walk were proceeds directly benefit the community. Very much history led by a local who has a unique insight into the struggles of the community and demonstrates this very eloquently thru the development of the town/city. Having been on other tours this showed us many places not covered by others. It’s a personal tour led by a real person so not as polished as blue badge but we were so glad to have met John and spent a few hours in his company. Ask about the secret entrances for pixies

5.00Enjoyable tour of Cambridge by a friendly and knowledgeable guide. I thought I knew Cambridge, but I certainly learnt a lot more about it's origins and its past and present history. This tour is for Cambridge residents and visitors alike.

5.00I really enjoyed the Experience Cambridge tour. John was a very pleasant, timely, and professional guide. He's a great story-teller and good at making things funny, while staying informative the whole way through. I had a lot of fun chatting to him. As a local, I don't usually stop to look around when going about my day. I have my paths and most of the city feels like the "in-between-ness" between my destinations. By contrast, the tour made the city feel like an easter egg hunt and I got to see Cambridge from new perspectives (literally and figuratively!). I also learnt so much about the history of Cambridge townspeople themselves. The narrative was very unique for a tour and I liked how it was tied to the modern day at the end. Plus the whole tour's business model is for a really good cause (supporting excluded individuals by training and providing them with work). I've recommended the tour (and John) to my whole family here in Cambridge!
