This magical walking tour is led by an award-winning Green Badge tour guide. It will introduce you to the extraordinary history and people who've shaped our city of dreaming spires. From Alice in Wonderland to JRR Tolkien, Oxford has inspired many timeless stories. But its real history is just as fascinating, and often just as strange…
As we walk around Oxford's famous buildings and explore its world-renowned university and colleges this glorious city will reveal its secrets to you.
This is a great tour if you only have a short time in Oxford or are visiting for the first time. I can tailor it to your interests so let me know if you are particularly interested in Harry Potter, Tolkien, CS Lewis, Morse, Alice in Wonderland etc. If you want to visit a specific college or the Divinity School you will have to pay an extra entrance fee - we can discuss the options when you book.

We will visit the oldest building in Oxford: the Saxon tower at St Michael's at the North Gate, and learn about how medieval Oxford developed long before the University emerged.

Perhaps Oxford's most photographed location, certainly its most romantic. It features in multiple films and TV shows including Wonka, X-Men First Class, The Mummy, Mama Mia 2, Morse/Lewis/Endeavour and Brideshead Revisited. It also hides the entrance to a secret, haunted tavern!
5 min
We will end in Oxford's magical Covered Market where you can pause for a coffee (and a toilet break!) before continuing your adventures.
