We Are Cambridge | Punting and Walking Tours
Founded by alumni of the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford, We Are Cambridge is a UK-based travel and education company specialising in premium Chinese-language tours and academic experiences in Cambridge, Oxford, and London. The passionate Cambridge team combine authentic university insight with seamless logistics to help international visitors understand these historic cities, not simply see them.
The core experiences include shared and private Cambridge punting tours, student-led walking tours, and combined walking-and-punting experiences. Unlike traditional tour operators, they focus on providing meaningful context through guides who have studied and lived within the university environment. Guests gain a deeper understanding of Cambridge’s colleges, traditions, academic culture, and student life alongside its famous landmarks.
We Are Cambridge is particularly popular with Chinese-speaking visitors, families, students, and education-focused travellers seeking a transparent, culturally aware, and multilingual experience. Support is available in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese, complemented by free self-guided audio guides in multiple languages. The services are designed specifically for international guests, making Cambridge more accessible and easier to navigate.
With its student-led approach, We Are Cambridge tours offer perspectives that go beyond standard sightseeing. Guests hear firsthand stories from people with genuine academic experience who love sharing the history, traditions, and hidden stories that make Cambridge so special – creating a more authentic and engaging introduction to the city.
Beyond tourism, We Are Cambridge operates at the intersection of travel and education. They organise study tours, cultural exchange programmes, academic visits, and educational itineraries for schools, families, and international students. This broader mission makes them especially appealing to visitors who view Cambridge as a place of learning, aspiration, and opportunity.
Their mission is simple: to help visitors gain genuine understanding of Cambridge through thoughtful tours, multilingual support, educational insight, and a welcoming experience designed for the global traveller.
