Good to know
- As Oxford University is a working institution, some sites may close without notice. In such rare cases, we’ll show you the best available alternatives, inform you of any major changes in advance, and offer a refund if needed.
- At Christ Church, your guide will provide an in-depth external overview before you enter independently with a multimedia headset created by the Christ Church team.
- During peak season (June–August), access to the Divinity School is extremely limited due to frequent closures and high demand, and may not be included in the tour. While some companies may claim otherwise, we prefer to be honest upfront rather than risk disappointment on the day. We will substitute this site with another College entrance, if not available on your day.
- If you select Pickup option (the more expensive one) the meeting point will be the London address (Gloucester Road Tube Station), otherwise its the Oxford one (15 Broad Street, Oxford)
Traveler reviews
A fun and informative tour
Our guide Oscar was fun, engaging and informative. The wireless receivers made it easy to hear. We visited several colleges ending st Christ Church college
3 hour walking tour of Oxford colleges.
A great experience led by a personable, and knowledgeable guide imparting interesting historical facts together with lighter funny stories about the world’s renowned place of education through the centuries. We were pre-warned that the itinerary of places to be visited may be altered due to the colleges being working establishments, although disappointing when it happened, good alternatives were added by the guide. A thoroughly enjoyable 3 hour guided tour. A big thanks to our guide (Valentino) and to the other four people on the tour.
Amazing!
Patrick was a very personable young man and made the tour so interesting and worthwhile. It was very clear that he has a good depth of knowledge and was able to answer all the questions from the group. An excellent ambassador for the company and for the University of Oxford! Thank you Patrick for making the tour such a positive experience.

Ross was a very knowledgeable guide. He did a great job describing the Oxford college experience and rich history. Very easy to understand his intelligent and entertaining presentation. He went over time making sure we were well prepared for our tour of Christ Church. 10 stars!
Awe inspiring tour of Oxford university
The experience was very immersive. The guided tour through Oxford University with its medieval buildings and rich history was like a live documentary with our guide Patrick. Never a dull moment in the 2 hour tour which was followed by a guided tour in Christchurch. I was awed by the history of the university with its educational ecosystem along with stories of nobility , wars, and literature including Alice in Wonderland, Narnia and the Lord of the Rings. This tour is definitely a must do when in Oxford.
