Our walking tour with Lesley was great. She was very informative, had a good sensor of humour and very easy to talk to. Our tour was only 45 minutes and she mentioned there’s a 90 minute tour that I didn’t see when booking or we would’ve done that. Overall a really good experience, I just would’ve liked it to be a bit longer.

Chris, our tour guide, walked us through the history as we walk past all those cobblestoned roads. He is very informative and funny. Had a lovely time on the tour 🥳🥰

Just the right amount of time. Hard to hear the guide sometimes as there were lots of people around. Headphones and a mic would have helped.

i liked that it was only 45 minutes so he could point out all the interesting things and then I can go back and explore in my own time

Highly recommend this walking tour. We wouldn't get so much out of walking around Oxford by ourselves. Leslie was fantastic!
