Great guided walk

A very interesting tour. The guide, Lucy was very knowledgable & engaging. It was good to be able to see the quad of a couple of colleges. Nice also that the walk was 2 hours & did not over run. A small group of 9 was ideal. We thoroughly enjoyed it & would recommend to people visiting Oxford for the first time.

Great overview of Oxford and the university

Our guide, Hannah was a wealth of information about both the town and university. Unfortunately, we were delayed getting to the meeting spot but she was very accommodating in meeting us along the tour route. There was so much to see but we got to all the highlights. If you only have a few hours, this was a worthwhile way to spend them.
