Last weekend a group of Catalan students traveled to Cambridge to have the opportunity to get to know that wonderful city a bit better. We were lucky to have Manuel as a guide, who enlightened us on the history and the understanding of the relationship between the University and the Colleges. Manuel made the difference in our trip with his experienced and friendly way of conducting the tour. Thanks a lot and see you soon. Rosa C, Spain

Muy recomendable el tour con Manuel, las horas pasaron volando, hemos conocido rincones de Cambridge y historia de la ciudad, los niños han estado muy contentos, lo recomendamos 100%. Alana K, Spain.

Hace una semana atrás, visitamos con el colegio N de Argentina, la interesante y pintoresca ciudad de Cambridge, de la mano de Manuel y su equipo de Guias. Fue una experiencia única, que nos permitió conocer en profundidad su historia, sus secretos y su día a día. Muchisimas gracias! Ojala podamos volver pronto! --  Albano G., Argentina

A very interesting, fun and informative walking tour of Cambridge. Manuel is passionate about his work and was happy to answer our various questions. Learnt some fascinating histories of people who have studied at Cambridge and the tour really did bring the City alive. Lynn G., Saffron Walden

Manuel did an "after hours" tour of Cambridge for a group of colleagues in my profession who had come to Cambridge for a training course which I organised. He was very accomodating to us regarding the route we followed and the content he shared with us. All my colleagues said how much they enjoyed the tour and we were left with the promise of a different tour next time we come to Cambridge. I thoroughly endorse Manuel Serrano as a reliable, amusing and knowledgeable tour guide of Cambridge. Ziz M., Cambridge

The tour with Manuel was great. His broad knowledge about Cambridge is just phenomenal. He is a very nice and approachable person.
I can only recommend him for a tour. Markus V., Germany

The tour through Cambridge with Manuel was very exciting and informative. I liked the fact that Manuel spoke calmly about Cambridge. He is an absolute connoisseur of this wonderful city. He finds history and stories on every corner. As a language student, I understood his clear pronunciation very well.That made the experience a highlight.Thank you for the great time Manuel.   Ursula W., Switzerland

导游先生非常专业敬业,知识渊博,又有耐心。两个小时的导览令我们收获很多,希望还能再有机会了解更多有关剑桥的故事和名人, Jing L, China

Mr Serrano is very professional. He has an extensive knowledge of the history of the United Kingdom and, especially, of Cambridge. He uses a clear and simple language so that anyone can understand him. He is enthusiastic about his work and is always willing to answer questions that arise during the visit. The one hour tour was very well planned, we had the opportunity to visit several monuments and to have a general idea about the founding of the University of Cambridge and its relation with the city. For all the above, I strongly recommend the tour and having him as a guide. Raquel B, Spain

I highly recommend Manuel as a tour guide in Cambridge. He makes the tour of Cambridge very interesting, full of facts and interesting stories that you will not read about in ordinary books. He makes the talk very interesting for both adults and children too!  In addition, if you are a foreigner like myself, Manuel as a tour guide is a very good choice. If there is a need he use simple English and he is very skilled to explain and describe the things in case you do not understand some words. He is very patient and he makes sure the answer to your questions. I moved to Cambridge in 2004. And us being busy with work, duties, family life… there was never time to really know what Cambridge is about. That one tour with Manuel took me to the roots of Cambridge and made me even more festinated about this city. All my family really enjoyed the Cambridge tour guided by Manuel.  Ewa D, Poland

Today's tour was very interesting and our tour guide, Manuel Serrano, very capable. He is an expert tour guide; his language was very understandble even for us that we are not from England and his explanations able to draw our attention. I recommend doing this tour, because you think to have the possibility to visit Cambridge whenever you want, but the reality is that if you go by yourself, without a guide, you can't understand all the history behind this monumental town. So I recommend this tour and I also recommend Manuel as a guide. Lucia F, Italy

I want to say that I was very impress by this tour. I did many tours before this one and to be honest after 1 hour I wanted to stop because I got bored. But with Mr Serrano it's very interesting because he really loves what he is doing and has a lot of riveting stories. I wish I could do another tour but in different parts of Cambridge! Johanna K, France

Thank you so much for the interesting walking tour around Cambridge. I've learnt lot of things about this beautiful city that I didn't know before. The part about the colleges was very useful, cause I'm a foreign students and Cambridge is very famous for their colleges. You' ve spoke clearly and slowly and have replyed to all our questions so thank you for your patience.Thank you. Alessandra C, Italy

I loved the tour around Cambridge. I learned a lot about Cambridge. In my opinion, the best it was to learn about the history of both buildings as the dynamics of life in Cambridge. Thank you for this great time!  Cidriana P, Italy

I would like to thank you so much for the wonderful and inspirational tour. That was with no doubt very excited and edifying experience for me. Now I am able to better understand the history of Cambridge and some of its colleges too. Thank you again. Dr Libor K, Vraclav, Czech Republic.

On Friday 6 October I booked a guided tour in Cambridge for the same day with other people.Manuel Serrano was our guide.We went around Cambridge for two hours.The guide showed us a lot of interesting places ;he was gentle,clear,comprehensive.He looked like enthusiastic and very well-informed about the Cambridge history.I really appreciated this tour. Giorgio R, Rome, Italy

I had the pleasure to attend to a tour with Manuel Serrano last friday with my school. I really loved to see this beautiful city and I was impressed how good Manuel could explain the history of Cambridge even to the people of my school who are on Level A and can't speak english that good. For me this is an awsome talent! I also liked to hear some special stories about Cambridge for example the story of the eagle pub with the ghost of the lady who died at the fire. As you can see, I really can recomend Manuel Serrano as a guide and I also can recomend to do this tour!  Melanie I, Switzerland

Thank you Manuel for such an enlightening tour of Cambridge – really enjoyed this beautiful city. There is so much history to learn which really did ‘come alive’ being interesting as well as entertaining. Definitely recommend you and visit again and book for another tour to a different area of the city. A complete professional service from initial booking enquiry, where to meet for the start of the tour. Even when it rained and shelter taken there was still a story to be told! After the tour we took your recommendation to do further exploring of Great St Mary’s and visit the Fitzwilliam Museum – once again thank you very much.  Lucy G, Burton-on-Trent

Manuel is an encyclopedia of Cambridge history told in an enjoyable and interesting way with a great coffee place recommended after, thank you (tour pre-covid)  Lucy G, Burton-on-Trent

I wanted to write and thank you for your tour of Cambridge last week. It was really informative with you providing a good overview of the history of this picturesque city.

I thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in learning about Cambridge. Manuel is a fantastic tour guide.  Rhonda D B, Sydney, Australia

Thank you so much for a lovely tour today. It was so interesting to find out the history of the city where we live and rush around without paying proper attention to its wonderful stories and buildings. Christiane B, Cambridge.

Perfectly pitched for our group. Manuel tailored a tour to the time we had and the mix of children and adults. It’s wonderful to be shown Cambridge by someone passionate about sharing its rich history.” Matt B, Cambridge.
