About This Tour
Experience Cambridge through the eyes of those who truly lived it. This is the only tour in Cambridge exclusively led by genuine University of Cambridge graduates, operated by Alumni Tours™. Unlike generic city walks, our guides share personal stories of student life, secret traditions, and the academic rivalries that shaped centuries of discovery. You’re not just visiting colleges—you’re walking in the footsteps of Newton, Darwin, and Hawking with someone who once studied where they did. Enjoy exclusive entry to King’s College Chapel, the crown jewel of English Gothic architecture, or upgrade to a private bespoke tour with access to additional colleges. Available in English, Mandarin 中文, and Spanish Español, every detail—from small-group sizes to our royal-blue Alumni uniforms—reflects our commitment to authenticity, storytelling, and excellence.
