Punting in Cambridge this winter

We all know that it can be a struggle to find ways to keep the Christmas spirit alive on the run up to the big day, and even harder to hide the presents! Our new scavenger hunt and punt experience will be their highlight during the advent countdown.

The hunt itself has 2 parts. The first part is punting along the river cam finding a serious of answers to some Christmas activities. The next part is around the city; following clues and searching for festive answers!

Once the Christmas scavenger hunt has been successfully completed there will be a sweet winter treat waiting for your little ones at Hardy’s sweetshop, a reward for all of your efforts.

So book now and get hunting!

Christmas Punt and Hunt

This Christmas scavenger hunt and activity booklet can only be purchased alongside a Shared or Private Cambridge Punting tour.

The hunt & activity booklets are available as an add-on once you have selected your punting tour. Please make sure that you are booking between the 3rd and the 31st of December for this Christmas add-on to appear. Select the number of booklets you would like to purchase – we do recommend that each child receives one booklet so they can all complete the activities together and each receive their prize.

Your pack will be handed to you at the start of your punting experience – we do recommend opting for an earlier punting tour time so you have the rest of the day to complete the city part of the scavenger hunt to experience the full festivities.

The questions during your punting experience will be used to form your final code for your christmassy surprise. The city part of the booklet is an additional Christmas hunt to carry on the fun. This part of experience will take you roughly an hour and will guide you around the iconic centre of Cambridge.

The hunt & activity book is for those aged between 4 and 11, with the older kids being able to complete the hunt by themselves but parents might need to help point the young elves in the right direction. Our Christmas punt and hunt is child-friendly, full of festive spirit and cheer, with magical stories throughout. So get your Christmas jumpers on and enjoy with the whole family.

Cambridge Punting during Christmas

During the most festive time of the year, the city of Cambridge lends itself well to the twinkle and glitter of the Christmas period. You might be visiting for a spot of Christmas shopping or take a trip through the North Pole at Parker’s Piece. Either way Cambridge is the perfect place during the month of December and we at the Traditional Punting Company have a festive experience that you should include on your ‘must do’ list this season on your visit to Cambridge. Join one of our top-rated chauffeured punting tours with a joyful twist as you find the answers for a sweet surprise. Then take to the cobbled streets to walk the path of Santa and his elves in the run up to the big day itself. Both the punting tour and the city part of the scavenger hunt will take you past the iconic sights of Cambridge, such as the Bridge of Sighs, Kings College Chapel and the Market Square to name but a few. Choose the Traditional Punting Company this December for a Christmas experience like no other.
