Welcome to Oxford: 2hr private Oxford walking tour

5 min

We will visit the oldest building in Oxford: the Saxon tower at St Michael's at the North Gate, and learn about how medieval Oxford developed long before the University emerged.

10 min

We will visit picturesque Broad Street, where bishops were burned, medieval colleges were founded and the largest room in the world selling books can be found.

5 min

Sir Christopher Wren's first masterpiece, where the university still holds its ceremonies. Next to the History of Science Museum, containing ancient astronomical instruments, the first penicillin culture and Einstein's blackboard.

20 min

We will see the stunning gothic architecture of the Divinity School and Duke Humfrey's Library - both locations where Harry Potter was filmed, and visit the Bodleian library, home to 13 million books! Entry to the Divinity School is optional, cost not included.

10 min

We will see the world-famous buildings of Radcliffe Square, including the Radcliffe Camera, University Church of St Mary the Virgin, All Souls and Brasenose Colleges

40 min

We will visit New College, one of Oxford's oldest medieval colleges, if it's open - or another college such as Balliol, Wadham or Trinity if it isn't.

5 min

Perhaps Oxford's most photographed location, certainly its most romantic. It features in multiple films and TV shows including Wonka, X-Men First Class, The Mummy, Mama Mia 2, Morse/Lewis/Endeavour and Brideshead Revisited. It also hides the entrance to a secret, haunted tavern!

5 min

We will end in Oxford's magical Covered Market where you can pause for a coffee (and a toilet break!) before continuing your adventures.
