I had an amazing experience - Thanks to an amazing tou r guide, Arushi, I had a wonderful experience in Cambridge! We walked around the city, including a small bookstore near King's Collage, the Guildhall, and a pub The Eagle. They were not so popular that even if you walk pass by you wouldn't notice that there would be a interesting story hidden. The tour was a little bit shorter than I expected for the cost, but I still found it worth paying for. Next time I visit to Cambridge, I will remember the day.

Great ghost walk! - Francesco was brilliant, some really interesting stories and answered all of our questions and had great knowledge of Cambridge! Only thing to note of the tour was that trip advisor says entry/admissions to the colleges is included, however we didn’t actually go into the grounds of any. Thanks Francesco for a great tour!
