The Original Uncomfortable Cambridge™ Tour

Discover a different side of Cambridge on the Original Uncomfortable Cambridge™ walking tour. This unique tour delves into the rich historical memory of Cambridge, uncovering diverse and often overlooked stories within the beautiful city centre.

Our Cambridge walking tour offers a fresh perspective on the city’s history, moving beyond the typical narratives to explore the complex stories of race, gender, class, and disability. We raise thought-provoking questions about the lasting legacies of the British Empire and its impact on the academic university.
