What to expect

New College

We typically spend about 30 minutes+ here to see the medieval cloisters film site plus the medieval quadrangle and walls plus the chapel, the hall and the gardens. Entry worth from £7 to £12 per person included in tour. Entry worth £8 per person is included in the ticket.

Duration 45 minutes

Bodleian Library

We typically finish the tour in front of the 'Nearly Headless NIck' statue outside entrance to Bodleian. We introduce the two film site venues at the Bodleian from outside and for anyone wishing to pay £2.50 per person to visit the Divinity school inside the Bodleian, they can do that after they say goodbye to the guide. Guiding is no longer permitted inside the Divinity school anyway, so we have decided to remove entry from the tour and reduce the tour by £3. Last entry to Divinity school for self guided entry is usually 4.45pm but check Bodleian website for any closures. As for entering Duke Humfreys library, you can only see inside the library, if you book days or weeks in advance, the Bodleian library's own staff guided tours via Bodleian website. Tickets for their library tours cost from about £10 to £20 and no children aged under 11 may enter Duke Humfreys library too!
