About Your Guides
Fellows & Footsteps was founded by a Cambridge local with years of experience sharing the city with visitors. That time on the ground — answering questions, reading crowds, and learning what makes people genuinely light up — shaped every aspect of this tour. No script is ever read aloud. The stories are real, the enthusiasm is genuine, and the coffee recommendations are excellent.
