The Tourist Information Centre walking tours give an excellent introduction to Cambridge's history and culture. The two-hour walks are led by knowledgeable guides – they must pass a rigorous exam before being awarded their blue badge. The guide's commentary (in English) includes a broad history of the city and its university, plus the hidden stories of the colleges, churches and alley-ways. Each tour is restricted to 20 people, so visitors are advised to buy tickets in advance (up to 24 hours before). Private tours can also be arranged, and are offered in a variety of languages. The route, time and theme of the tour can be tailored to suit individual needs, including combined walking/punt tours and coach tours. There are additional tours at 10:30a (Monday to Saturday, July & August), 11:30a (Monday to Saturday, from October until March), and 2:30p (Sunday to Saturday, from June until August). Prices: These vary greatly and depend on the numbers in a group, length of time and routes.
