Best walking tour if you want a history lesson.

Best walking tour with Dave. Two hours of more history than you learned in school. Excellent way to learn about Cambridge history. Well worth the money! Best for history buffs, not small children.

David is so knowledgeable and provided great historical details about Cambridge. A different way of discovering a great city. Highly recommended.
Great way to learn our history.

We only booked this tour on the morning of our visit to Cambridge following a brief glance at previous reviews. We were not disappointed. If you only have a limited time to learn about a place then the most obvious thing is to learn of its creation. You can then walk around, admire and appreciate the city and all it offers with that core of knowledge.
Our guide Dave was absolutely brilliant. Extremely knowledgeable, [don't know how he remembers all those dates and names of historical characters] and very enthusiastic but with the ability to describe and explain in such a way for all to understand.
The walking distance covered is very easy and the time of 2 hours is just about perfect for the amount of information to absorb. Even our teenage German student visitor found it enjoyable, meaning that this appeals to all ages.
Thoroughly recommend this to anyone interested in history and who doesn't want to waste their time and money on tourist trivia.

The walking tour brought the rich history of Cambridge to life. Our guide John was a fountain of knowledge whose love for the history of the city was clearly shown. He for over an hour provided insights in the buildings and the major figures from the past who added to the story of city of Cambridge. I would recommend this trip to anyone interested in finding out about this wonderful city.
Very enjoyable

A very informative experience a shame the college grounds weren’t open but this was to be expected due to Covid

Hello, we walked with John. It was good to hear John's local knowledge but also to pick up on the bigger picture linking the city with religion and the history of university education. Good job!
Great tour

Our guide was Dave and he took us around Cambridge imparting his vast knowledge on the history of the city. I would have liked to have seen more of the universities but many were closed to the public.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
