Better with a Pro at the helm

Published on Aug, 2024

Wisely choosing to enjoy this experience in the hands of a professional, we were able to sit back and have a wonderful conversation with our guide, Angus. He has an easy way of explaining the history of Magdalen College and the significance of the waterway. Seeing people attempt to navigate the punts on their own highlighted Angus's (and I'm sure the other guides's) skills. Another box on my bucket list ticked!

Lovely experience

Great tour

Published on Jul, 2024

Lovely day for a punting tour, our tour guide had plenty of knowledge about the area, truly thoroughly enjoyed it

Excellent chauffeured tour

Published on May, 2024

Highly recommend the chauffeured tour— punting looks easy but that’s because the gents are trained! Our guide Leo was delightful. Saw many a family struggling to go against the current, but we thoroughly enjoyed our very smooth tour.

An Oxford must do!

Published on May, 2024

So much fun! Fabulous guide, very entertaining watching others (inexperienced) trying to manoeuvre their punts and stay dry! A must do in Oxford!
