What to expect
Oxford
The origins of Oxford University can be traced back to the 11th century, making it the oldest university in the English-speaking world. Enjoy a walking tour of the city with your expert guide, who will bring the history and charm of this beautiful city to life by own. As you walk through the cobbled streets, you'll see architecture from every period in English history, from early Saxon right through to the Gothic Revival. This is the only place in the country where you'll find buildings from every period in English history, which is what makes Oxford so unique.
Bodleian Library
The Bodleian Library is one of the oldest and biggest libraries in Britain. The library (which is actually a series of interconnected libraries dotted throughout Oxford that are collectively referred to as the Bodleian Libraries) has an impressive history – some of its buildings have been libraries since the Middle Ages.
Bicester Village
The train ticket to Oxford we offer is also valid for a free stop off at Bicester Village on the return, making this the ideal opportunity to enjoy the UK’s most popular shopping destination.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
