Oxford Beyond the Dreaming Spires Walking Tour

Description

The Oxford Beyond the Dreaming Spires Walking Tour takes you away from the well-trodden tourist routes and into the city’s hidden heart. Whether this is your first visit or you’ve already explored Oxford’s famous sights, this tour reveals a side of the city that many visitors never experience. Venture north of the historic centre, where many of the University’s colleges are found, including the pioneering colleges that opened higher education to women. Explore the striking architecture and innovation of the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter, wander through the characterful streets of Jericho, and uncover the places where Oxford’s academic, cultural, and social life truly thrives. Along the way, you’ll step into lively neighbourhoods filled with independent cafés, historic pubs, acclaimed restaurants, and hidden corners loved by generations of scholars, writers, scientists, artists, and entrepreneurs. This is Oxford beyond the postcards. Beyond the clichés. Beyond the dreaming spires.
