What makes Small and Exclusive Oxford Highlights Tour a unique experience ?
This is a small group tour and half the size of many other tours in Oxford. Start the tour here and admire the architecture of probably the most famous college in Oxford. Many tours do not see Christ Church (from the outside) and we believe this is an excellent place to start the tour and hear an orientation of how it all began. This also gives you an overview to visit Christ Church independently in the afternoon should you wish.
Stroll through the meadows with your qualified guides, here we are surrounded by the two rivers – The Thames and the Cherwell. View the Meadow Buildings at Christ Church.
Hear how important this church is in the history of Oxford.
Marvel at this iconic Oxford building located on Radcliffe Square. Your guide will tell you about the history of not only the Camera but the colleges that are also located in this area – Brasenose and All Souls.
Walk through The Old School Quadrangle, admire The Tower of The Five Orders, see The Radcliffe Camera, go inside The Weston Library. The Bodleian Library has a deep and fascinating history and your qualified guide looks forward to telling you the history.
