Why choose this Oxford tour ?
As a student, it truly is my pleasure to show guests around this marvellous city. I’ve travelled far and wide and there are few places on the planet that can compete with the beauty, history, and majesty of central Oxford. I’ve been a student here for three years now, and it would be my pleasure to show you around.
We’ll cover as much as we can in three hours. Please note that entry fees are not included in the fee, though they are not necessary for a fantastic tour. NB: with groups of one or two (and possibly three – if we’re lucky!), we can access practically every site for free with my student card.
Please note: Colleges, libraries, and other university sites are liable to occasional closures. I will always do my best to plan around closures when they are announced, but please be aware that access cannot be guaranteed.
For more options, dates/times & greater flexibility, or if you have any specific requirements, please message me through my website – Oxfordaudiotour [dot] com.

The first lecture hall of the University, featuring the most incredible stone ceiling you’ve ever seen. Also features in many movies, including several Harry Potters.
Iconic structure designed by Sir Christopher Wren to hold graduation and matriculation ceremonies.
This famous bridge connects two halls of Herford College. There’s a fabulous story behind it, unsurprisingly!
Regale the tale of Henry VIII’s Reformation as we learn about the most fascinating library in the world. Gorgeous stone towers and more books than you’ve had hot dinners.
The ‘poster-child’ of the city of Oxford. But what is it’s purpose? And how does it tie in to Nazi Germany?
The only of Oxford’s colleges that doesn’t offer places to students. Home to the world’s hardest exams and the city’s weirdest party.
The oldest pub in Oxford. A great place to stop, or to extend the tour if you wish. Merton Lane, the High St and Christ Church meadow are calling!
This lovely college is certainly on the small side, but it’s history packs quite a punch. Here, we’ll discuss the Town vs Gown rivalry in Oxford, and how it resulted in one young student’s death.
This beautiful meadow sits just outside Christ Church, perhaps the grandest college at Oxford.
