The City Of Oxford Tours From London
A Wide Range Of Tours From London Every Day Of The Year
 |
Christ Church College Oxford |
The city of Oxford is about 60 miles (95 kms) from Central London, a good 90 minutes non-stop from London in a tour bus.
The famous university city of Oxford is a large city, but the central area where all the colleges and attractions are, are in a compact area right in the centre of the city. Much of this part of Oxford is either pedestrianised or has narrow lanes and alleys where vehicles, let alone tour buses do not venture.
Because of this a visit to Oxford on a tour bus inevitably involves a walking tour. This normally means a visit inside a college, the most popular being Christ Church.
Oxford & Cambridge Tour
Runs between May and September every Tuesday & Saturday
If you are particularly interested in the university, why not visit both of England's famous universities, Oxford and Cambridge in one day. This is a seasonal tour that only runs in the summer months.
We begin our day travelling across the Chiltern Hills to Oxford, the 'City of Dreaming Spires', whose hushed courtyards have inspired generations of scholars including Bill Clinton and writers, Lewis Carroll who wrote 'Alice in Wonderland', C.S. Lewis who wrote 'Chronicles of Narnia' and the immortal J.R.R. Tolkein, author of 'Lord of the Rings'.
On the walking tour you'll visit Christ Church college, where Harry Potter scenes were filmed, see the Bodleian Library and the picture-perfect college courtyards for which Oxford is justifiably famous.
Cambridge is a wonderful mixture of the everyday and the extraordinary, a living city that has shaped history and today reflects the best of historic and contemporary life. It was the inspiration for Charles Darwin, Isaac Newton and many of the Monty Python gang.
We will have a guided tour of the magnificent chapel of Kings College, founded in 1441, and a fascinating walking tour of a city filled with beautiful buildings and historical quirks.

Oxford, Stratford and Warwick Castle Tour
Perhaps the most popular tour that visits Oxford is the tour that visits Warwick Castle, Stratford On Avon and Oxford. This tour also provides glimpses of the Cotswolds, one of England's most scenic regions which is very close to Oxford. The journey between Stratford and Oxford driving through this region.
Windsor, Stonehenge & Oxford Tours
Another very popular tour visits Windsor Castle in the morning, then goes onto Stonehenge around lunchtime before arriving in Oxford mid afternoon.
Small Group Oxford, Cotswolds and Stratford Tour
Oxford lies on the edge of the Cotswold region, one of England's most scenic and unspoilt landscapes. The small group format is especially appropriate for a tour that discovers the Cotswolds as it enables the bus to go down the lanes and backroads that the big tour bus crowds cannot. Couple that with a knowledgeable guide who knows all the hidden gems this is an excellent option.
