Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Tim was quite interesting and funny. His tales of students' escapades and history of Cambridge University were enlightening. With this tour, walking through the city centre gave me a new insight. I'd recommend this tour.

What a great tour! I'm so glad we didn't plump for an audio tour! Tim kept us thoroughly entertained and intrigued throughout the two hour walk thanks to his great sense of humour and incredible historical knowledge about Cambridge, the colleges and their alumni.
A great start to our stay in Cambridge. Thanks Tim.

Tim has a real passion for history and his two hour, fantastic walking tour, was delivered with humour, enthusiasm and a seemingly bottomless well of knowledge.
I have lived in Cambridge for years and my husband and I decided to do this tour with our grandson from Sydney , who loves the history and architecture of Cambridge.
We loved every aspect of the tour Tim, Many thanks.

Tim was great - so knowledgable about Cambridge, I think he could have talked for hours on the subject but restricted himself to 2! Small group - just 4 of us and Tim avoided the other tours which were circulating at the time so it was very peaceful and quiet. Just saw so much and learnt so much more than we would have done had we just wandered around by ourselves. Thoroughly recommended.

I’m so glad I booked a tour with Tim. He’s an absolute fountain of knowledge and threw a lot of humour into the tour, making it very enjoyable. So many interesting stories about the origins of the colleges, the students, the fellows and Nobel prize winners who have passed through. He really brought Cambridge, and it’s fantastic history, to life.
If you’re in Cambridge and have an hour and a half free, I would highly recommend you join one of Tim’s tours, you won’t be disappointed.

Tim has so much knowledge and a way of making it all very interesting and fun. This is the second walking tour we have done in Cambridge and wow this tour with Tim was the best. How to make a couple of hours just disappear hanging onto his every word. Fantastic don’t hesitate to book it’s well worth every penny.

Really interesting couple of hours spent today walking around the colleges of Cambridge. So much history over such a short distance and so many centuries. Plenty of tales about the students and fellows of the Cambridge colleges, interspersed with the history. Would definitely recommend this tour.
