Jess was amazing! She...

Michele_L, Jul 2026

Jess was amazing! She shared so much wonderful knowledge on both Tolkien and Lewis and their adventures at Oxford. We loved learning about The Inklings and the places they would meet. Magdalen College at the end of the tour was the icing on the cake. Out of all the walking tour we did, this one was our favorite.

Absolute favorite tour ever!

If I could give higher than 5 stars, I would! This tour was the absolute highlight of our trip! I am already wanting to return so I can repeat this tour. Jess is fantastic and has a wealth of knowledge. Her love for Lewis, Tolkien, and the Inklings were evident. She was also awesome about giving us extra helpful information, including help with scheduling the train and recommending restaurants! What an outstanding day!

This tour is a must!

Jess was an amazing tour guide. She was extremely knowledgable about all things Oxford. Her joy and love for Tolkien and Lewis was evident throughout our tour. I highly recommend this experience for anyone who is a fan of great literature or just great storytelling.
