Fascinating insight into Oxford student life

Interesting and engaging 2hr+ walking tour with our guide, EJ, who was so passionate about life and study in Oxford. She was exceptionally knowledgeable and full of stories and quirky facts. EJ coped exceptionally well with the unplanned closure of one of the colleges we were to visit and managed to seamlessly continue the tour whilst negotiating with the college and tour operator to successfully get us in. She was happy to answer our many questions and ensured the comfort and safety of the group at all times. Highly recommended experience.

Excellent way to spend 2 hours

We did the free 2 hour walking tour with Trystan, who was fabulous. Lots of history, anecdotes and jokes. Walked around the most ‘important’ sites in central Oxford.

Great stories from Alex E.

Alex E. Was a great host, he had fascinating stories and knew all about the history of universities and the city itself. Lovely to get to know more about this topic and we heard a lot of fun facts which made it even more interesting! Thanks Alex E.!

Excellent Oxford tour

We had a wonderful tour with Elena this morning. Her knowledge of historical and current-day Oxford (both the city itself and the colleges) was in-depth and extensive, and her enthusiasm was contagious. Our group was fortunate to have had her as our guide. We left having learned a great deal and also highly entertained by her compelling presentation of the relevant information.

Very interesting visit

Very pleasant visit to the interesting Christchurch College. Heloïse, our guide, was interesting, educational, and very friendly. We were able to see Christchurch in detail and learned a lot.

Walking tour of Oxford

Our tour guide was Eloise. She was very familiar with Oxford University life, and the various colleges and culture in the area. Because she was working on her masters degree in archaeology. She had detailed knowledge about the buildings, the history, and unique feature features in Oxford. We found her to be pleasant, and articulate, and she did a fantastic job.

Operator response

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear that Eloise's knowledge of Oxford, its colleges, and its history helped make your visit so enjoyable. Her academic background and passion for the city certainly bring a unique perspective to the tour. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to Eloise. Thank you for joining us, and we're so pleased you had a fantastic experience!

Footprints tour with a passionate story teller

Thorston was a fantastic guide. He was knowledgeable, witty and most of all passionate about history especially of the people of Oxford. He had a natural story telling ability which made the tour very enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour with this guide.
