Great tour (with small intimate group) - We had a smaller group tour so it's more intimate but still engaging, Francesco is very helpful and gives all the stories in an interesting way.

Great tour that inspired by teenage daughter - My teenage daughter and I had a wonderful tour with Lindsay. Lindsay was very informative and answered everyone's questions. We learnt lots about the different colleges and the achievements and history of the university. My daughter was sad when the tour was over, and it inspired her to aim for a path to Cambridge University. I would highly recommend this tour company.
