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.

“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!
Manuel S.
Thank you. It was a pleasure to show you how Cambridge has links with C S Lewis. Feel free to come on another tour next time you come to Cambridge!

“A fantastic, delightful and detailed trip around the Colleges at Cambridge”
Murray was well prepared with printed material. He was right on time. We spent 3 hours around the Colleges in the central of Cambridge. He knew a lot of facts which made the tour interesting and funny and helped me remember for the lots of information we got. He also had activities for the kids (4 and 7 years old). It was an amazing 3 hours. I would highly recommend to walk around Cambridge with Murray for every kind of group as he is flexible and I'm sure he will organize just the right tour for you! Sophy
Murray J.
Sophy Thank you so much for that lovely review. I really enjoyed the tour, too! I'm sure the next time you visit King's College Chapel the kids will remember the stone dragons and greyhounds. It was also very nice to be part of your family for a short time. Many thanks again Murray
