Christ Church Oxfords vidundere: Privat rundvisning
Beskrivelse
Christ Church er hjemsted for mange vidundere, og jeg er heldig nok til at være en af de få guider, der er akkrediteret til at tage private ture indeni. Kollegiet dækker disse på 5 personer, så de er meget eksklusive! Christ Church er det mest berømte college i verdens ældste engelsktalende universitet, unikt i at have et kapel, der også er en katedral. Det har været et tilbedelsessted i 1300 år, grundlagt af en feisty saxon hellig før Oxford endda eksisterede. Med tiden blev det ikke kun hjemsted for tusindvis af lærde, men for den virkelige Alice i Wonderland og, senere, en berømt dreng troldmand. Jeg inviterer dig til at rejse tilbage i tiden gennem den spektakulære Tudor spisestue, mirakuløst reddet gamle helligdom, udskåret trone af dømt kong Charles I, fabelagtige Hogwarts trappe og sjældne middelalderlige farvede glas vinduer for at få en historie af ikke kun kollegiet, men England selv. VIGTIGT: Jeg bliver nødt til at kontrollere kollegiets tilgængelighed før bekræftelse.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Vi starter i de herlige Christ Church-enge og besøger derefter kollegiet og katedralen. Rejseplanen inkluderer: - Den forbløffende Tudor-sal, hvor konger, dronninger og den ægte Alice i Eventyrland alle har spist. - Den fantastiske fan-hvælvede trappe, hvor Harry Potter blev filmet. - Tom Quad, hvor Oxford University-studerende bor og arbejder, kong Charles I mønstrede sine tropper under borgerkrigen, og Sir Christopher Wren byggede et berømt klokketårn. - De gamle klostre, hvor munke engang strejfede. - Christ Church-katedralen, hvor vi vil se det herlige hvælvede loft fra det femtende århundrede, St Frideswides helligdom og en række fantastiske farvede glas fra middelalderen, gennem prærafaelitterne til nutiden. Denne tur er afhængig af, at Christ Church er åben for besøgende på denne dag. Når du bestiller, vil jeg tjekke med kollegiet.

What an amazing experience we had with Jess, the remarkable Lady Gargoyle, on our recent visit to Christ Church Oxford. She brough alive our unique Tudor past with charm, wit and a wealth of knowledge of her subject which can only come from someone who lives and breathes the history of our Country. Jess seeks out the important evidence and facts with glimpses into the lives of so many of their famous alumni & residents (we loved the information about Charles Dodgson, and the real 'Alice' and the beautiful story of St Frideswide explained through the stunning stained glass above her shrine ) It was wonderful to have the opportunity to climb the famous stunning staircase & visit the Dining Hall containing the portraits of the many famous, and infamous, who have lived, worked and studied in these beautiful buildings. We cannot praise Jess more highly and will most certainly be back for more of her fabulous tours in the future!
Jessica provided us with an exceptional tour. Every question we asked, she answered. Clearly Jessica has an extensive knowledge of the university and the cathedral. She is not just a tour guide who can explain the history of Christ Church, she walked us through many of the influences and even shared many stained-glass details. So glad we booked this tour; Jessica was warm, friendly and we very much enjoyed the time spent.
Thanks for such a lovely review, it was a joy to take you round Christ Church!
Jess provided an in-depth and authoritative tour, with interesting information and stories, in a style that was engaging. She is clearly passionate about the subject, and that translates to making it captivating.
Thank you so much Charlie, it was great to meet you both!
Absolutely fabulous tour with Jess. She is a wealth of knowledge, very personable and made the tour such fun with her stories. Beautiful buildings great hall and stories about writing of Alice in Wonderland
Our guide Jess was excellent with an amazing knowledge of Christ Church! Even though some areas had been closed by the college on the day of our tour, it was totally worth doing. Highly recommended!!
Jess was very knowledgeable and took her time with our blind son and made sure he had great tactile experiences. Afterwards she even walked us to a great pub for lunch! Great visit
We were a group of five, aged from 9 to 76, with a diverse range of interests and enthusiasms. Jess catered for us all, taking us from the stories of saints to Alice in Wonderland connections and Harry Potter locations. The history , architecture , stained glass and art of Christchurch is stunning and we’re hoping that Jess will develop a tour taking in more Oxford colleges.
