Christchurch is no substitute for Cambridge, but that doesn’t mean that it can’t try.
Punting on the Avon is one of the more pleasant ways to see the city from the river. You ride in a flat-bottomed boat propelled by a punter dressed in traditional Edwardian garb.
The standard ride is in a shared boat that holds up to 10-people with a return trip that takes around 30 minutes. For a more romantic option, go for the 45-minute private tour on a smaller boat.
