Tour Itinerary:

Anderson Tours run this popular full day budget tour. An accompanying Tour Manager manages the tour and makes sure things run smoothly.

Unlike many tours that visit three main destinations this day tour only attempts two. As a result you will have more time to explore both Oxford and Stratford than most other tours.


Pickups are between 07.30 and 09.00hrs at London Bridge, Kings Cross, Baker Street, Victoria, South Kensington and Earls Court.

The tour is due back in London around 18:30.

Oxford

Oxford is just over an hour from London.

Bridge of Sighs Oxford

On arrival in Oxford you will have a guided walking tour. After this you will have some free time to explore this University City.


The “City of Dreaming Spires” is famous the world over for its University and place in history. For over 800 years it has been a home to royalty and scholars and since the 9th century an established town, although people are known to have lived in the area for thousands of years. Nowadays the city is a bustling cosmopolitan town. Still with its ancient University, but also home to a growing hi-tech community.

Nearly everything the visitor wants to see is within 5 minutes walk of each other. Most are associated with the university. Perhaps the most popular single attraction is Christ Church Oxford. Its popularity enhanced recently by it being part of the Harry Potter series of films.
