OXFORD HISTORICAL HIGHLIGHTS + Christ Church Tour
Take it a step further, with an exploration of Oxford and a visit inside Christ Church, with its deep and interesting history. Probably the city’s most famous college, not least because of its connections with the Harry Potter films and its iconic dining hall.
Starts at Christ Church memorial gardens on St Aldates. From here we meander through cobbled streets and quaint alleyways to the heart of Oxford University, passing sights such as University Church, Radcliffe Camera, Old Schools Quadrangle and The Bridge of Sighs.
During the two hour tour, your guide will explain the history of Oxford from its humble beginnings to the world-class university which we know today. The tour will finish on or around Broad Street where your guide will offer advice on where to go for lunch, to do some shopping, or embark on further sightseeing.
