On our way, we shall discuss how ideas and life itself have changed over centuries, and what today’s Cambridge is like – both the City and the University.

Tanya brought us to sites that we would have not seen on our own. She was very informative and provided great depth of information on each place.

A great way to see Cambridge with a genuinely informative guide. Tanya was so accommodating to our busy weekend schedule and organised a 2-hour private tour which included access to one of the colleges (even when it was meant to be closed!). We took in so much information about the sights in Cambridge and had a great time in the process. I would recommend to anyone thinking of visiting this historic city to get in touch with Tanya to maximise on their time here. Great experience all round!
