Oxford Walking Tour

Explore a historic and beautiful city on our Oxford Walking Tour. We'll stroll around the outsides of the magnificent buildings that make up the University of Oxford, which is one of the world's most prestigious universities.

Description

At the scheduled time, we'll meet at Carfax Tower, found along Queen St, in the heart of the city centre and set off on our walking tour of Oxford.

To begin, we'll head to Carfax Tower, the last remaining element of what was once St Martin's Church. From here, we'll walk to the replica of the famous Bridge of Sighs in Venice, linking two buildings of Herford College. We'll visit the outside of the Bodleian Bookshop, Radcliffe Camera, and St. Mary the Virgin Church in Radcliffe Square.

We'll also see Christ Church College, which houses an important collection of over 300 paintings by artists such as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Rubens, and Van Dyck. This spot was also used as a filming location for some scenes in the Harry Potter saga.

As we explore, we'll discuss interesting facts about Oxford, including the requirements to study at the university and some of the most famous students who have attended.

Finally, we'll visit Broad Meadow, one of Oxford's stunning open-air public spaces. After exploring for 45 minutes, we'll return to the starting point and finish the tour.
