Multilingual tour guides plus we can cater for all ages & English levels. Our approach is to offer a more personalised service- NOT 'follow the leader' tours! Plus Ticket saves you money at 44 shops, cafes with our Ticket! Likewise, we don't undercut our own competitors ( by advertising a free tour yet touting for tips). Tickets £8 + free for kids and 2-for-1 tickets for Students. So if you want to enjoy a humorous, informative tour with eccentric anecdotes and gain an insight into what to see and do next, join our tours departing 11.00, 13.00 and 14.30 (plus 12.00 & 14.00 possible too). Week-days, we recommend call to confirm! « less

Our tour guide was Juliette , a very pleasant young lady. She gave us a very interesting, informative tour with lots of quircky information which despite living near Oxford i never knew, this all very amazing seeing as she spent most of her life in South Africa, it really shone through her love of Oxford. I can thoroughly reccommend. More

Alisdair set a very fast pace (wear flat shoes!), the tour was only 50 minutes long, he talked while walking, so I missed a lot due to road and other noise and his facing away from us. May be better to go on the more expensive but two-hour-long Blue Badge Guide tour from the TIC. He gave us a list... More

Having never visited Oxford before, I was keen to make sure I made the most of my visit. Alasdair's walking tour was very informative and interesting . Alasdair was very entertaining throughout and his stories bought Oxford alive. Alasdair was also very helpful in suggesting which of the colleges to visit. Well worth the money. More

My family and I took Alasdair's walking tour after the tour guide for the official TI tour failed to show up. We were very glad we did! The tour was fun, very informative, and just about the right amount of time. Alasdair shares a wealth of information about Oxford and visits many of the important sites at the University. He... More
