I will give this tour an average rating. Too many people in our group (around 25). Oxford is full of tourists and crowded. Our tour guide is good but since we are a big group, you cant hear her from the back. Saddest part was our Christ Church entry was cancelled.

Our guide was Alex, he is a current student in Oxford. He was very insightful and made our tour very interesting. We were able to see all the university that has significance in history and politics. Christ church is a must see.
