What are people saying about Oxford

Fun history

We stopped through Oxford on our travels and really enjoyed this city tour. Our guide was fantastic. He provided history of the monarchy and the colleges that was fun and informative. I especially appreciated the opportunity to tour All Souls College.

Oxford University Walking Tour With University Alumni Guide

Kamie_A, Jun 2026

Tradition and charm combined into an enjoyable experience

Our guide, Sam, was not only very knowledgeable about Oxford, he was very entertaining. I learned about the history of Oxford along with some quaint, quirky anecdotes. My family was amused and edified. Thank you for accommodating our rather chaotic entrance to the group.

Extended: Oxford University & City Tour With Christ Church

Michael_M, Jun 2026

Good overview of Oxford

Good overview of Oxford. I debated b/w the 1.5 / 2 hour and 3 hour and the 3 hour extended adds the Christ Church which is the last hour and if you go on your own the tickets are around 30 pounds and sometimes difficult to get. Afterwards I think the 3 hour was worth it. It also included a very good audio headset.

A true highlight of our trip!

We had the best time on this tour. Our guide, Steve, made every effort to interact with us, even involving our kids in the fun, and was truly interested in making sure our day was special. The itinerary was full of things to do but we never felt rushed or like we missed out on anything. One of the best “in a day” tours I think we’ve ever done.

Our guide was very...

Our guide was very knowledgeable, personable, and entertaining, and gave us various options to customize the tour to our liking. Unlike some other guides we had during our trip to England, she spoke very clearly so we had no trouble hearing her. She also gave us a good suggestion to do walking tours of Oxford at different times of day, to maximize the variety of things that are available to see, and we plan to do that if we visit Oxford again.

We had the absolute best day on our Tour of The Cotswolds! Our guide Adi was the best! He took us to amazing spots and shared interesting information throughout the day. He took us to places we would never have gone to if we were on a group tour. It was totally worth doing! Adi also recommended the perfect spot for lunch-allowing us to maximize our day. The day could not have been better nor could our tour guide have been more perfect!

Cotswolds Villages Full-Day Small-Group Tour from Oxford

anywang, May 2026

Excellent day tour from Oxford with several super photo opportunities

This was a small group tour of 7 people. Saw the beautiful Cotswold area with several great photo opportunities. Few other tourists in the smaller villages. Everything was smooth from reserving to pickup and drop off. Everyone was timely when given free time to explore. Some walking required. But they will accomodate you if you want less walking. This was a gem of a day trip from Oxford. I would highly recommend this. Ian was a wonderful guide and super knowledgeable. Good value for your money.

Fun Afternoon Tea on the river!

We had a lovely afternoon tea boat tour in Oxford and would highly recommend it! Our guide, Oscar, was fantastic—he expertly navigated the boat along the river while sharing interesting and informative details about the sights we passed. The afternoon tea was absolutely delicious and made the experience even more special. It was such a relaxing way to take in the beautiful scenery while enjoying great food and learning more about the area. Overall, it was a perfect combination of sightseeing and relaxation. Highly recommend this tour!

Calgar was outstanding!...

Calgar was outstanding! He gave us a fantastic full-day tour of the Cotswolds and struck the perfect balance – being informative without overwhelming us, while still giving plenty of space to explore the villages on our own. Communication was excellent, especially regarding pickup time and location, and his vehicle was spotlessly clean. Highly recommend Calgar to anyone looking for a wonderful Cotswolds experience!
