We were a group of six architects and requested a tour of historic and notable new buildings. Our guide, Victoria, showed us buildings we weren't aware of, gained access to some we would not have seen on our own and gave us interesting insights into the University. The two hours passed all too quickly. Excellent.
Thank you Elizabeth for the walking tour of the University and colleges. Your deep knowledge and stories on the intertwining politics, religion and key figures in Oxford's history were really fascinating, and led us to find things we would never have seen on our own. The time passed in a blink.
A lovely afternoon on the Morse, Lewis, Endeavour tour. Our guide Heidi was magnificent, a lovely personality, very knowledgeable, passionate and endearing. A most memorable experience to celebrate our visit to Oxford on our first date 31 years ago. Can thoroughly recommend this tour.
Victoria did an absolutely wonderful tour. She personalised everything, and the breadth of her knowledge was amazing. She addressed each of our questions and took us to specific sites for our areas of interest, from the history of the colleges to Inspector Morse and Harry Potter scenes.
Excellent experience with very passionate guide Trevor. He is highly recommended and very eloquently knowledgeable. Made the time fly by. What a fantastic day it was!
The weather had turned and we were ready for anything. The tour was upbeat and informative with really great local knowledge, and a pinch or two of Alice in Wonderland as requested. Really enjoyed the walk round and through the lesser walked paths in Oxford. I would recommend it to anyone.
Elizabeth Hudson made Oxford a favourite for us! She showed us all the colleges and more. Her knowledge of Oxford and her passion for it shone through. She was kind and beyond informative.
Bella was a wonderful tour guide and we enjoyed seeing all of the sights of Oxford. The information she provided added to the richness of what we were seeing. We'd use her again.
Our guide was just fantastic, so knowledgeable and friendly. We felt like experts by the time the tour had ended. What a wealth of history and stories to cover in a few hours. Such good value.
