Traditional Punting in Cambridge
Overview
See the beautiful sights of Cambridge from a different angle by hiring a boat and guide and punting through the city.
Punting is a great way to enjoy a relaxing trip along the River Cam and witness the stunning views of Cambridge University that are otherwise inaccessible by foot.
The Traditional Punting Company offers chauffeured experiences along the College Backs in Cambridge - a renowned stretch of the river that passes by 7 colleges, 9 bridges, and some of the city's most iconic landmarks accessible only by boat.
They offer tours for every group size - from a private punt just for you, or large groups with multiple punts. They can cater to any group size and tailor the experience to you. They even offer the ultimate alfresco dining experience with a picnic punting package.
Visit Traditional Punting Company's website for more information and to book your Cambridge punting tour.
