Punt tours are a great way to see some of the historic colleges along the riverside, including St John's and the Bridge of Sighs, Trinity, King's and more. However, don't be taken in by punt touts; they rarely offer good deals. Go to one of the big punt stations such as Scudsmores on Bridge Street and tell them how much you're prepared to pay per person; there is usually quite lot of flexibility depending on how busy the day is. If you're feeling brave get a self-hire punt (charged by the hour) although without the benefit of the guided tour. Alternatively you can also hire canoes or rowing boats from the Mill Lane punt station.There isn't really an option to walk along the river in the town centre as college buildings literally form the banks, although you can cross bridges within various colleges along the riverside.However, if the weather is good and you have a spare afternoon, it's well worth getting a map or firing up Google Maps and heading south along the footpath by the river from Mill Lane. You will head across some green fen areas, and after a short loop through Newnham village, arrive at the picturesque Granchester meadows, perfect for picnics by the river. Grantchester itself is about 3 miles from the city centre, but well worth the trip for the Orchard tearoom, the haunt of various writers and poets in the early twentieth century. You can also make this trip by bike if you've hired one - there are Tarmac paths all the way.

A guided punt tour along the river Cam gives a brief insight into the university college history. A self drive trip is much more adventurous but could end in disaster!

whilst the main attractions in Cambridge are the colleges and their buildings, the walk along the river should not be missed. Very pleasant at any time of the year.

When taking guests punting previously we have always gone with scudamores, but last week we were on our way there when we were stopped by a young man near the market square who offered us a discount on a trip with them. We decided to take a chance and go with them instead, and weren't disappointed. The punter was humorous and full of knowledge about Cambridge, charming us all with his stories. A great trip!

It's a real nice place to walk and breathe. Some places are free but it's really a shame you have to pay to see the bridge of sighs because it's part of a college that charge you to visit.

What a trip. Fantastic tour guide and experience. Views are outstanding. Good chance for loads of pictures. A real must see for any visit to cambridge

Cambridge has been home and influential in the works of two of my favourite musicians: Nick Drake and Syd Barrett. Though the river passes through the centre of a busy and vibrant city, it does so with grace and tranquilty. It would be quite possible to sit on one of the bridges and lose oneself in meditation becoming oblivious to passing traffic and tourists. The Anchor pub is situated iby the Cam in the centre of the city, surrounded by the the major universities and offering a perfect view of the river with punts tied up outside the building and weeping willow in abundance. All that is missing from this perfect settingis is Nick Drake's 'Riverman' playing on a loop though to the pub's credit they do have a frieze in one of the bars dedicated to the memory of Syd Barrett. Almost perfect.

You can either take a punt along the 'backs of the colleges' as it is known locally or you can walk along the backs once you have crossed the river. Be warned their are punt touts EVERYWHERE and they are a bit of a nuisance, make sure you negotiate the best deal. You can get a guided punt or have a go at punting yourself, it is MUCH cheaper. Punts go form Magdalene Bridge , Silver Street or the Mill Pond at the Granta. The first 2 are easier to find. You can also take a punt to Grantchester but these only go from the Mill Pond off Silver Street, all you see this way is the meadows but you can pull over at the bank and have a picnic. If you want to walk you need to cross the river by one of the public bridges and walk along the banks of the most famous colleges.

The River Cam is a pretty place the go bunting on, take a walk beside or even picnic. Walk by the rowing houses. It's great to see all the co-eds working out and getting ready for the races.
