Morning Punting

First of all, by choosing to join us on the river for a tour which departs before 11am, you will experience the river in the very best way possible, when it’s at its quietest. It really is a lovely peaceful time to be on the water and as we are able to offer our very lowest rates you are also bagging yourself a bargain.

We do charge a little more for our weekend tours but you will still find that our prices are extremely competitive compared to other Cambridge punting companies.

Feel a bit defensive reading the reviews, because I feel Ollie was the best guide (punting and delivering a fun talk in cold Feb is no joke) - he had incredible energy. Thanks 🙂

Had a wonderful morning on the boats for our first time in Cambridge. Best way to start the day especially having Zac as our man with pole who knew a great deal about the history. Learned a lot of the bloke. He’s the reason I’ll come back again! Cheers punters

Amazing tour, well worth the money! Our tour guide Zac was awesome as well!

Punting in Cambridge with kids

Whilst punting is an extremely safe activity, Children’s life jackets are available on request. If you would like a life jacket please do let us know and we will be sure to have one ready for your tour with us.

Whether you book a private or shared tour with us the kids will have a great time out on the river. From spotting swans, ducks and other wildlife to punting under weeping willows and low bridges theres plenty to keep them entertained!

Punting with us around Easter, Christmas or Halloween then be sure to add one of our seasonal activity booklets to your booking.

 

Chauffeured Cambridge Punting Tours

Our Cambridge Punting tours cover the ‘College Backs’ and pass seven of the most famous riverside Colleges; Magdalene, St Johns, Trinitiy, Trinity Hall, Clare, Kings and Queens. Your chauffeur will provide an interesting and informative speech whilst you glide along the River Cam.

Sit back, relax and enjoy one of our award winning chauffeured tours, lasting approximately 50 minutes. The earlier in the day that you book the quieter the river is likely to be adding to your chauffuered punting experience in Cambridge.

During the summer tours depart from 9.15am but if you are looking for something even earlier please do contact us and we will be happy to assist.
