What are people saying about Oxford

Janet_G, Aug 2026

Excellent tour with Elliot

We had a great time learning all about the history of Oxford University as well as how it currently functions from Elliot, an alum. He was super knowledgeable, funny, and engaging. Also, he not only gave us a great dinner recommendation but walked us over to the restaurant as well.

Nilofer_K, Aug 2026

Very well organised tour...

Very well organised tour from booking the tickets, to keeping us informed via email, to the day itself. Sue, our tour guide was brilliant. We had two children with us and their feedback is they loved the quiz about Harry Potter. Sue kept the children engaged with lots of information about the filming of Harry Potter.

Everything you’d want to know about Oxford from a great tour guide

We got the most interesting and thorough tour of Oxford by one of their alumni Helena. She was terrific, providing lots of detail about not only the colleges, but about politics and royalty and tensions between groups and the architecture of the town. I would highly recommend it.

Oxford University and Harry Potter Tour with Live Entertainment

Ioana_G, Aug 2026

Very good tour for families with children

I recommend this tour especially for families with children. The tour has a good timing and pace and is a very good mix of Harry Potter highlights and information about Oxford university. Shane did a lot of magic tricks that our 11 years old loved. He also replied to questions of adults about student life in Oxford university, beyond the information he offered about Oxford colleges and university as part of the tour. I recommend it

Oxford Sightseeing River Cruise Along The University Regatta Course

Smooth sailing with Paul!

Paul was an excellent skipper on a very fun, calming, quaint cruise! We chose to head down the Cherwell instead of directly down the Thames, giving us a lovely view of the colleges and a chance to poke fun at all the punts and peddlers along the way. A brilliant way to spend a late morning!

Great day with Christian!

This was an amazingly informative and efficient way to see the Cotswolds from Bath. Thank you to Christian for a lovely day and Elena for coordinating as my contact prior. We saw more places and learned more than coordinating on our own or doing a bus tour. Really feel like we got to know the area and Christian tailored the trip to our wants and needs. Highly recommend and would do again!

He customised what we aimed in the trip, is knowledgeable about the history of the Cotswolds area, provided excellent service and went a step further providing advice on taking photos as a pro. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a chill and enjoyable day trip in Cotswolds!
