My family (my wife, 9 year and 4 year old) joined for the shared walking tour and our guide Richard did a terrific job of going over the rich history of Cambridge. I was initially sceptical if my 9 year old daughter would like this. However, she rated this as one of her favroite interactive guide experiences in London. During the tour, Richard patiently answered our questions on academic life in UK, Cambridge and shared his own experiences as a student. We were running well over the 90 mins mark with all our questions, but Richard patiently answered all our questions and spent an additional 15 minutes to cover all the places in his agenda. He also patiently waited as we pushed our son through the campus road with our stroller. I appreciate Richard's interest and passion and I'd strongly recommend this tour to anyone who is interested to learn more about Cambridge.

Such a lovely tour, thanks, Anahita!!! The tour covered most of the colleges and I’ve learned so much about the city and the university. Being led by a current student, it had a nice personal touch and also gave the opportunity to ask many questions about student life at Cambridge Uni.

Zoe, our guide, was great. Felt good to have insight from a university graduate who had lived and breathed the Cambridge experience.
