Oxford fiercely protects its architectural legacy, home to potentially the most exceptional collection of historic structures in the United Kingdom and globally. The Classic Oxford Walking Tour provides a guided stroll of 90 - 120 minutes through architectural and societal history spanning a millennium. Our journey reveals not just iconic civic and university edifices in Oxford but also delves into their genesis, architects and construction intentions, supplemented by a rich narrative about the social history of the town and the university. Sights include but are not limited to Christ Church, the 11th-century University Church of St Mary the Virgin – the university’s inception point, the globally-renowned Radcliffe Camera, the Bodleian Library – the oldest academic library in the English-speaking world, Oxford’s Bridge of Sighs, and more. Whenever feasible, we guide our customers inside university and college buildings. (Personalised private tours can be accommodated).
