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.

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)

  • A perfect tour of a perfect city

    Isobel was so informative and funny and really gave us a taste of the Oxford University life. All the little inside stories about ducks, and tortoises and sheep - you will not read about them online! It was a gloriously lovely day for walking around too and the tour took in Trinity, Hartford, Radcliffe quad and the Sheldonian. Two hours or so and mainly outdoor - we stopped in Blackwells because our tour was small - with spots to stop for water and a snack. We really wanted to see Magdalen which isn’t included so we walked over there afterwards. Absolutely loved it! 🤍

    Loved the candid and humorous approach to the town's somewhat morbid history. It was lovely to interact with our tour guide, who shared some intriguing facts and anecdotes and was so considerate for the elderly couples who were on the tour!

    There’s no better way to tour than with a student. We thoroughly enjoyed our guide and her knowledge of the history of the university.
