Oxford Day Trip

Private Oxford tour from London

Oxford: the ‘city of dreaming spires,’ medieval colleges and some rather magnificant old buildings. My Oxford guided tour explore’s the city’s history, stunning architecture (Bodleian Library, Sheldonian Theatre, Radcliffe Camera and more), and the people – lots of people – who were made by Oxford and helped make its name: Wren, Hawksmoor, Carroll, Tolkein and more.

We will also visit Christ Church, one of Oxford’s largest and most accessible colleges. This is a paid attraction, but worth the price of admission. The Great Hall was the inspiration for Hogwarts, and some Harry Potter scenes were filmed where we walk. The 12th-century gothic splendour of Oxford’s Christ Church Cathedral is also housed within the walls of the college.

Christ Church was also home to Alice Liddell, the real-life Alice in Wonderland; and a mythical Oxford to Lyra Belacqua of Her Dark Materials. It’s here that their stories begin.

Come and see for yourself on my day trip to Oxford from London.
