Punting is very popular in Cambridge and you'll find lots of companies asking to book a tour with them. As we booked with Scholars Punting Cambridge via Get Your Guide, we just made our way to their stall on the river. The tour guide was great and so informative about the history and general information about the colleges of the University. He was helpful with any questions we had and he also made the punting trip a fun experience!

We had a fantastic and very knowledgeable guide who tailored his commentary to match the people o. The punt, for example we were Australian so he told us about the famous Australians that had lived and studied in Cambridge. It really made the trip very interesting and my fellow travellers thought so as well. He was well worth the tip we gave him.

I enjoyed punting a lot, the tour guide was very informative, and the scenery was beautiful. It was a grey and rainy day, but they have umbrellas on the boat for everyone one (1 per 2 people). I went alone, but it was £40 (includes up to 3 people). There was no option to buy one seat. other than that, I really enjoyed it! Highly recommended!
