Oxford: Stories, Secrets & Sights Walking Tour with a local

You start the tour at Oxford's oldest college and hear a brief history of Oxford & the University. Note that we do not go inside any buildings during the tour. If you are interested I recommend you visit after the tour, where you can spend as much time as you need, rather than being rushed.

You will learn about the history of this museum & its collection, many of which were owned by famous people.

You learn about the architect, the history & what the theatre is used for, including two Oxford University historic ceremonies.

You get to see a bridge that wouldn't look out of place in Venice & how its used in an annual Oxford University tradition.

You learn all about the history of the buildings that make up the library, its links to our Kings, how its collection was created & how it is used by students today.

Probably Oxford's most photographed building. But what is it? Hear about its history, its architects & the use of its hidden tunnels.

Hear about the trial of Oxford's martyrs. Note that we do go inside as part of the tour. The entrance is free.

See a unique market full of independent traders & an amazing Galatia.

Hear about a town & gown incident that epitomised the relationship between the Towns People & Students dating back 600 years.
