Outstanding tour!

Our Guide was a fabulous guide taking us to so many beautiful locations in the city and the various colleges. He shared many historical and humorous stories with our group! I highly recommend this tour to help orient yourselves in Oxford and provide an overview of the history of this incredible city!

Great way to learn about Oxford

The whole college vs university concepts of Oxford had me confused prior to this tour. Appreciated all that our guide shared about the structure of the colleges and university system. Then he added all the historical details of the city itself. Well worth the fee to make the day in Oxford even more memorable.

Fascinating packed two hours

Wonderful packed 2 hours with excellent guide. Very good and hugely informative commentary and discussion. David soon appraised our level of knowledge and interests, and consequently not a minute was without interest. He was very knowledgeable about the city and university, and its history.
