Cruise Cambridge’s college backs on a 50-minute chauffeured punt, with comfortable seating, live English guide, and river-only views.

“Our guide Adam was brilliant! Lots of Cambridge knowledge and lots of energy despite it being his first day back after a break!! Adam was professional, friendly, amusing and answered lots of questions. Thoroughly recommend this experience to everyone! The Traditional Punting Company seem to have more comfortable punts with a deeper area to put your feet so you don’t feel like you are sat in the floor!”
