Traveler reviews
Beautiful and fun day in Oxford!
We very much enjoyed our tour of Oxford with Footprints. They answered all my questions promptly ahead of time and the booking process was easy. Communication was good about when and where we needed to be for pick up. We used the Footprints transfer from London and found Dougall to be friendly, informative and a good driver as well. When we got to Oxford we started our tour immediately with Thorsteiin. He was engaging and easy to be with. We learned a lot as he told us all about the background of each place we visited with funny, entertaining stories too. We’d definitely tour with them again, and Oxford particularly was wonderful.
Fantastic introduction to Oxford
Thorstein gave a fantastic walking tour! We were able to see several colleges during our roughly 2 hour tour! He provided a mix of history, architecture and fun anecdotes (including information about Harry Potter, CS Lewis, Tolkien and more)! He was highly entertaining and took the time to provide recommendations on things to see and where to eat the end!
Fun few hours full of information!
Our tour guide, Shree, was amazing! She was funny, full of information, and also so kind (she lent out her umbrella and rain jacket to those of us that were unprepared for the changing weather!) We would highly recommend this tour to anyone spending a few hours in Oxford!
Fantastic trip
Sam delivered a very entertaining & knowledgeable trip around the colleges of oxford. It’s always a pleasure to listen to someone who has an in-depth knowledge of their subject, as well as a passion. Highly recommended!
Fantastic free tour with Sam
We did a free walking tour with Sam Day and he was absolutely brilliant! There was so much information delivered in clear and humorous way. Couldn’t recommend him more! His knowledge and love of Oxford as an alumni student was so clear and enhanced our experience. Thank you! R.I.P Fever.
