Punting

Cambridge is famous for its punting and to anyone unfamiliar with punting it is recommended that you try it when you visit Cambridge. Punts are shallow bottom boats measuring 6 to 7 metres long and up to 2 metres wide and are steered with a long wooden pole. If you are feeling adventurous you can hire a punt from a number of tour operators or if you would like to sit back and relax with a glass of wine you can also book a chauffer guided tour with a reputable tour company.
