The Bridge of Sighs

You certainly do not NEED a guided tour to enjoy historic Cambridge - thankfully most of the major attractions are within a short stroll of each other in the old central core of the city. But taking a tour can give you a good orientation to this wonderful historic city. Also, tour guides can often access places that are off-limits to regular tourists, such as the university colleges.
