Definitely worth it! Best way to see Cambridge and you can get some great pictures from the river. I will say, if you’re not sure about the time, there are plenty of options for punting when you arrive so if you’re not sure what time of day you’d want to do it, you’re probably okay to walk up to any of the punting shops the day or hour of and get an equal deal.

Punting in Cambridge is breathtaking & Rutherford’s is top notch! Blankets on board kept us warm on a very cold morning. Our handsome & friendly tour guide gave us a fantastic history of the colleges and bridges we passed, as well as helpful tips for the remainder of our stay.

Great way to see the universitues, colleges & the sights via the river! Thank you for the fun tour - while it wasn’t sunny we were comfortable in the punt & had an extra blanket - bonus - less busy than during the sunnier months - I’ll be back

This tour was a fantastic addition to our university tour. The view to the Volleges and university from the Garden/court side was amaizing. Very impressiv. The young man, our guide was very polite and had answeared our every question. Has a lot of knoledge. The tour surpassed our expectations.

We had a fantastic time on the gondola boat guided by our guide Toby from Rutherford’s Punting Company. He knew a lot to tell about the sights, about the local history, and was a very funny guy. He made the gondola ride interesting and enjoyable. Very sympathetic guy with a sense of humor.

We had a great time! Our punter/guide was both entertaining and informative, and the prices are much better value than many of the other punting companies in Cambridge.

Really enjoyed our punting tour, apart from the rain! The tour guide was very informative and it lasted about 40 minutes up the river and then back down! Shared the boat with another family but we sat on the other side so it was more private than I thought.

Instead if shared punt, i was given a private boat with Andy, the punter/guide. The weather was lovely and Andy was great company. He explained all the history of Cambridge university. And as I was alone in the boat, he gave me full attention and answered all my queries

My first time punting experience was surreal. My guide cum punter (unfortunately I don't remember his name) was an amazing chap and narrated a few interesting stories. It is a must do activity if you are in Cambridge.

I had Andrew as our guide and dispite the rain he made the experience worth every penny. He was the best! He thoroughly explained all the sites we saw
