Daily tours commence at 11 am, 12 am and 2 pm. Oxford zealously guards its architectural heritage which boasts the possibly finest collection of historical buildings in the United Kingdom and around the world. Our Classic Oxford Walking Tour takes visitors on a relaxing 90 - 120 minute meander through 1000 years of architectural and social history. Not only do we see some of the most iconic civic and university buildings in Oxford and discuss their origins, the architects and purpose of their construction while providing a rich vein of social history of the town and university. Among the sights you will see are Christ Church, the 11th-century University Church of St Mary the Virgin where the University began, the world-famous Radcliffe Camera, Oxford’s Bridge of Sighs, the Bodleian Library, the oldest academic library in the English speaking world, and much more. Where possible we will take clients inside university and college buildings. (Customised private tours, can be arranged).

Andrew was very knowledgeable. He guided us to the main attractions in Oxford. And also provided us with some recommendations of places to visit on our own.

There's no better way to start your visit to Oxford than with such a professional guided tour! History and the rise of the university were mixed with nice stories and beautiful sights. You try and make plans what to see next, but we got so many tips along the way of the guided tour! So we did our planned museums, and: we ate at the Vaults, we visited the New College and enjoyed the peace and quiet, and found the oldest café near the city wall. We still have more days and we'll definetly use more of the insights in visits.

Thanks to my guide for not canceling the tour when it turned out to be just me! Despite the rain the tour was great. I learned a lot about the history of Oxford and some of the different colleges. As a Tolkien fan I appreciated my guide pointing out somethings I wouldn’t have noticed on my own. He was also great at giving suggestions on other sites to see
