K Life | Budget Cambridge Day Trip: Cheapest Punting & Route
We chose the most affordable punting option: £70 for "up to 6 people" (Scholar’s Punting) Ended up sharing with 3 others (not private). Turkish boatman gave minimal commentary (only mentioned key bridges). 🚶♂️ Post-Punting Route 1️⃣ Newton’s Apple Tree (5-min walk from dock). 2️⃣ King’s College: Tickets: £17 adult / £14.50 child (5-11) (buy at King’s College Visitor Center for 10% souvenir discount). Must-see: Gothic chapel + Xu Zhimo’s "Gently I leave…" stone in the garden. 🛍️ Shopping King’s Parade shops: Quirky finds! Bought: Noble Art magnets + "Women Who Changed the World" tote. (Cambridge magic: Where £70 buys you bridges, poetry, and Turkish small talk.) 🚣 #Cambridge #BudgetTravel #Punting #StudyAbroad #UKDiaries
