Offered in: English

Hidden around Cambridge you will find the famous Dinky Doors. They're delightful miniature sculptures to discover, and finding them makes for a fun and completely different way to explore the beautiful city of Cambridge.

The doors are especially loved by kids, but adults can also appreciate their humour and creativity too. They spark imaginations and make people smile. There’s even an elaborate story behind them that you can learn as you explore.

There are currently 15 doors to discover – each unique and designed to make you think and smile. Buying this tour gives you permanent access to all current and future doors .

The tour is self-guided so you can go at your own pace. You needn't visit all the doors on the same day and you can discover them in any order. Note: Nobody will meet you or accompany you on your tour - it's all done on your phone.

Every door has a video backstory as well as dinky facts and questions and answers to challenge you.
