Stratford, Oxford, Cotswolds and Warwick Castle from London

Walking tour of Oxford

Oxford is famed for being home to the most prestigious and oldest university in the English speaking world. During your guided walking tour, you'll learn about the history of the city and appreciate the magnificent architecture of the 13th century University Church of St Mary the Virgin and the University of Oxford itself.

The University Church of St Mary the Virgin is an Oxford church situated on the north side of the High Street. It is the centre from which the University of Oxford grew and its parish consists almost exclusively of university and college buildings. The church offers free entry to the public so explore inside if you wish. There is a small fee if you wish to enter the tower of the church which can be paid on the day at the Church.

The Cotswolds

Enjoy views of breath–taking countryside, sleepy villages, and bustling market towns as we drive through the charming scenery of one of England's most beautiful regions.
