Tanya Yurasova, official Cambridge tourist guide
I am a professional green-badge Cambridge guide, with a passion for local history and popular science. I love sharing my knowledge and joy with other people. In 2010, I completed a one-year training course and have been guiding on the beautiful streets of Cambridge ever since.
Try my walking guided tours of Cambridge, treasure hunts, quizzes, or virtual tours.
A private walking tour of Cambridge can be tailored to meet your specific interests. You may choose a short introductory tour “Sights and Highlights”, a longer, more in-depth version of it, or a tour with a special focus – such as History, Science & Discovery in Cambridge, Maths and Computing, Physics and Astronomy, Architecture, Famous Cambridge Personalities, Ghost Tour, or the Fitzwilliam Museum. (The latter is currently only available as a live guided tour online.) If you have a theme or a topic in mind, please get in touch.
My virtual tours of Cambridge are designed for those who cannot physically visit the place. They are live and interactive, with images, video clips and sounds of the city – and the participants being able to engage and feel almost ‘present’ and ask questions.
I also run entertaining and educational treasure hunts in Cambridge for families with children and adults.
I take special care in ensuring that group sizes and the format of the tours comply fully with the COVID-19 measures.
