I enjoyed learning about Oxford’s sights from an illusionist and Oxford insider, who told stories and performed thematic magic at each stop.
This was one of the most unique, entertaining, and informative tours we'd ever been on. Our 11 and 13 year old kids were engrossed the entire time, and we learned so much about Oxford's history while laughing often at Shane's quips and marveling at his close-up magic tricks. Highly recommend!
Our guide was very Informative loads of interesting facts great entertaining magic. Worth every penny.
Loved the tour with Shane, so fun friendly and knowledgeable. Like a true local he knows bits you don't find in a textboik. And top it off, my daughter was wowed by his magic tricks!
This was a fabulous insight to central Oxford and the history of the University precincts. Sean was the best guide, funny, knowledgeable, engaging and a clever magician. He went out of his way to engage with each individual in the group. As a one man business, I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
Shane was a great tour. Somehow managed to entertain both adults and kids! We all enjoyed it - highly recommend
Great experience. Shane explained each location really clearly. The magic tricks were unfortunately not my style, though I enjoyed it.
It’s a good mix of interesting facts and magic tricks which is helpful to keep the younger ones interested. Shane was very pleasant and engaging. He took lots of questions and made the 90 mins fly by. Really recommend (we had a 14 and 16 year old and they really enjoyed it too).
Great tour! Good info while still fun for kids! Provided interesting info and did some magic along the way!
Very informative and interactive. Definitely gave a lot of great tips on what to do and not to do in Oxford to get the most for your money.
