BLIZT Tour of Oxford - All the Highlights in 60 minutes
If time is of the essence, this is the tour for you! In just one hour, we'll cover the major landmarks of the city centre, including a full history of both the city and University of Oxford.
The city of Oxford is commonly considered as being divided into two groups: the Town (local residents) and the Gown (students of the University). While I am currently a ‘townie’, I have been awarded a place to study at Oxford this year - and my fiancé is currently studying a DPhil. This gives me a unique perspective on both sides of the community and the city, and I will share it with you in a tour so entertaining and memorable that you will wish you lived here, or your money back!
We’ll cover as much as we can in sixty minutes. Please note that entry fees are not included, though they are not necessary for a fantastic tour. If you'd like to go into colleges or customise the tour in any way, please feel free ping me a message me.
Group size is flexible - £5 per extra person.

Spencer's Early Morning Tour of Oxford (Private)
Are you an early bird? Do you like to get up and explore new places before the mob have had their breakfast? Well, this is the tour for you. For this private tour, we'll kick-off at 07:30 and have the city to ourselves.
The city of Oxford is commonly considered to be divided into two groups: the Town (local residents) and the Gown (the University).

We’ll cover as much as we can in two hours. If you wish to enter colleges or customise the tour in any way, please feel free to reach out to me any time.
Note: entry fees are not included though they are not necessary for a fantastic tour. Group size is flexible - £10 per extra person.
