Your say in Cambridge isn’t complete without a punting tour from Scholars Punting Cambridge.
During the punting tour your chauffeur will give you an entertaining commentary detailing the rich history of the famous colleges and Cambridge landmarks.
Each of our punting tours take in the magnificent riverside colleges and bridges
The punting tour is a return trip starting and finishing at our pontoon on Thompson Lane, Jesus Green, covering two kilometres,
lasting around 45 minutes.
All our boats are built in-house using traditional woodworking techniques. The boats look great just like our chauffeurs who wear a traditional uniform, so expect wax jackets, cricket jumpers, waistcoats & boat shoes.
All our boats feature raised seating which is angled to stop you from sliding down the seat. It also offers additional legroom. In addition, we offer cushions and blankets as standard.
