About Tour Guide Manuel S.
Hello! I am Manuel, an experienced and professional tour guide with extensive knowledge of the historic city centre of Cambridge.
My walking tours describe men and women whose ideas and actions have affected nearly every area of human endeavour. It is very likely that someone from your region or country is already in this city to either work or study. How can that be possible in a city of less than 150,000 people?
Come to one of my tours and find out. I will ensure that, no matter your background or age, your visit to Cambridge is a memorable experience. I hope to see you soon!

Tours
The Cambridge years of C S Lewis
This 1.5-hour walking tour covers the years that C S Lewis spent in Cambridge in the 1950s and early 1960s. We shall walk some of the streets he walked, listen to some quotes from his books read out loud, and if anyone is willing, even talk about some of the topics which interested him. Lewis once said "I can’t imagine a man really enjoying a book and reading it only once.” This tour will show you that C S Lewis was more than the famous author who wrote The Chronicles of Narnia.
The deep-rooted excellence and beauty of Cambridge
Most people know of Cambridge's excellence in many fields of human study and activity. Fewer people are aware, though, of the deeply-seated social environment surounding many of its pioneering individuals. This walking tour invites you to admire the sheer beauty of Cambridge's streets, bridges, river and green spaces while you hear some fascinating stories about such people of both past and present.
Cambridge: top secret agents
A walking tour revealing how Cambridge has been a source of secret agents for five centuries. Starting with Tudor England and all the way to the 21st century, the actions of some of these individuals changed the course of several important historical events. To any fans of Agent 007 out there: if you come in this tour be ready for a big surprise about him.
Cambridge: the classic 2-hour walking tour
This 2-hour walking tour of Cambridge will delight and amaze you. Here's a question: What do atomic research, the translation of the Bible, dental care, the speed of sound, Romantics poetry, night climbing and an anti-slavery campaign have in common? Answer: Cambridge people have played an important and influential role in either their creation, research or application. You will also learn about traditions in sport and music, and even pranks and jokes which relate to the university and the city.

Atención a quienes son fans del agente 007: en este tour os espera una sorpresa (o mejor dicho más de una) respecto a él.

“Great Tour, Great Guide, Great Time!”
I went on the CS Lewis tour and it was a great experience. Would highly recommend taking any tour with this guide, as he is very knowledgeable and conversational! My only regret is that I only had time to do one tour!
