Mother's Day Punting in Cambridge

Mum is such a special word, the loveliest we’ve ever heard…

With Mother’s Day fast approaching, why not treat those very special women in your life to a 50-minute guided private punting tour along the College Backs. The River Cam, in springtime, has an abundance of nature to spot. Delight your mum by gliding down the river surrounded by primroses, crocuses, snowdrops and daffodils. You will also get a bunch of freshly picked Daffodils with your Mother’s Day punting tour.

Sit back and relax with your family whilst your chauffeur enthrals with tales of historic Cambridge, famous alumni and student pranks.
