CurrentI’m a Cambridge Green Badge Guide running “Hidden Cambridge” - offering entertaining and informative talks and tours of Cambridge. Regarding virtual tours, most popular is “The Must-See Street in Cambridge”. This tour has been given to clubs/groups all over the UK, from north Devon to Inverness, and further afield, including the US, New Zealand and Australia!These tours look to be entertaining, informative and interactive. The tours incorporate Google Street View as well as PowerPoint slides. I aim to keep the audience engaged by asking various questions during the talk and afterwards am more than happy to try and answer any questions the audience have. There has been a lot of extremely positive feedback.“Hi Murray, huge thanks for a fabulous virtual tour of Cambridge….It’s a great format you have developed and the mix of sights, anecdotes and interactive nature works really well.”“Many thanks for last Thursday’s presentation. From the extremely positive comments I have had about it I think I missed a real treat. Unheard of BUT the members have mentioned that there was a discussion about the possibility of a second presentation sometime in the not too distant future.”“Thank you so much for the very interesting tour you gave us on Thursday morning. This was our first “visit” since lockdown and you helped prove that such events will work. There were any number of our members and guests, including the former Archbishop of Wales, who had connections of various sorts with Cambridge and they together with those of us who have no previous were all fascinated by the guided tour. Thank you very much – now to find a Murray Jacobs in Oxford!!”And one of my favourite “requests” for a virtual tour – “I am the speaker finder for the club. I understand you recently spoke to the ….Club and the feedback was that you (were) very good. I have no idea of the subject you spoke about, but you come very much recommended. I would like to invite you to speak to our club.”
