A fascinating trip through Oxford's history - My husband and I found the Bodleian Historic Oxford Walking Tour a wonderfully enjoyable experience. Our guide, David Crosby, was full of information and knew how to deliver it in a way that was easy to listen to and even memorable-- quite a feat when you consider the breadth of history we covered! The guide one has makes a big difference in the experience; so I highly recommend you ask for David.

The most interesting way to see Oxford - A good way to see some of the interesting parts of Oxford that you could miss. The guide was knowledgeable and gave an entertaining talk and he didn't try to rush us around.

Really disappointed - No one showed up at the meeting point, no one answered the phone and I'm still waiting for my refund.
