100% recommend, amazing stories, completely different view of the cities mysterys - Ended up on my own since everyone else cancelled so it was more of a private tour. My guide David was great. Very interesting stores that I haven't heard before that gave me a completely different perspective on everything that happened in the city. Wished I had done this sooner in my trip because we went to places I would love to have the opportunity to see again after the stories I've heard on the tour. 100% recommend. Make sure you dress accordingly since it was a bit chilly since it takes place later in the day.

5 star tour & Perfect Guide - Had our tour today with Rupert and he was the perfect guide! He was full of knowledge, interesting little facts, and witty banter. Had a laugh throughout and even guided us back to town after for our dinner reservation. Highly recommend this tour especially if Rupert is your guide.

Lovely short walking tour of the city with an interesting focus on ghost stories - My son and I went on this tour at the weekend & both enjoyed it. Annie was an excellent guide, knowing the city and it's colleges. We were shown around the backstreets of Cambridge, hearing the stories around some of its ghostly history and seeing some lovely little spots we likely would never have stumbled across by ourselves. Thoroughly recommended to other visitors.
