TOURS
YOUR TOUR CAN BE TAILORED TO
ANY SPECIAL INTERESTS.
We can offer you the following tours, or if you have any other ideas we could possibly find a guide who can best match your interests. Please do contact us for a discussion about how we can help you plan your visit. We can arrange tours of any length of time whether it is an hour or up to a whole day but to get the most out of your visit if time is short, we think a 2 hour or 90 minute tour is good.
We will meet you at a central meeting point that suits you but generally the Martyrs Memorial is easy to find or the junction of Catte Street and Broad street (see maps).
Come prepared for the weather and wear comfortable footwear. The tour will involve about 1.5 miles of walking mainly on the flat but sometimes requires steps up into colleges or other buildings. Some buildings are not easily accessible.
Please advise us in advance if there are wheelchair users so we can plan accordingly.
PRICES
Your tour is a personalized one and depends on the size of the group and the length of the tour which usually lasts 90 minutes or two hours. We can give you a price when we discuss your requirements with you. Generally this will be from £95 upwards.
Many Colleges and University buildings such as the Divinity School charge for entry and this can vary from £1 up to £8/£9 per person for entry to Christ Church. These charges are in addition to the guide’s fee and some can be booked in advance or will be payable on the day.
GROUP SIZES
Group sizes can vary from a small family and friends group to corporate, conferences, schools or larger groups. Generally the maximum group size per guide is 19/20. We limit the numbers because we feel that it is important that you can see and hear the guide but also because the colleges limit the numbers they will admit and 14 is an ideal size. For larger groups more quides can be provided.
ACCESS TO COLLEGES
Many Colleges and University buildings such as the Divinity School charge for entry and this can vary from £1 to £6 per person with £15 for entry to Christ Church ( 2020 prices). These charges are in addition to the guide’s fee and some such as Christ Church and New college must be booked in advance. Others are payable on the day.
