Oxford - Inspector Morse Walking Tour

A very Intetsting Tour with not only Inspector Morse filming locations, but also a chance to see the Universities and other historical locations atound Oxford. Martin made the tour interesting with his knowledge of the area, something you could not do on your own We were lucky as only 2 of us. This was the only morning tour that suited our time frame.
