The tour guide was very very conservative with words to put it politely.
Rarely spoke only when we asked him .

Booked an early evening private Tour with my daughter. Special treat after her summer studies. Ben R made it enjoyable with special historical insight on all the different colleges. So great to laugh along the way- he made the trip stand out for sure. Five Stars!

This was a great way to spend an evening. Our tour guide Gemma was really friendly and had good knowledge of both the city and the university. The river was quite busy as it was such a nice day, but she was able to navigate the punt well and avoid any collisions!
