These sweet people tolerated my changing my tour date, entertaining a refund due to illness early on in the vacation, and so many questions via e-mail. With public transportation from London, I was a mess by the time I arrived to the tour, but Alice was so accommodating, and I am so thankful for them. Freya was our tour guide & was very knowledgeable. I still have so many questions, I would love to hang out with her at a pub & chat a while! The others on our tour were a joy to be with. I think there was 8 total, so not too big of a group. *I don’t think the students & the employees of Oxford cared much for tourists, but this is not something the company can control. I enjoyed my tour immensely, despite them* Oxford is so beautiful, I could just sit in one spot & soak it all in for so long, or slowly meander for days. I would 100% recommend this tour. I would look into private transportation from London, though.

Our student tour guide Mars was amazing. She shared her historical knowledge but more importantly she shared her personal experiences at Oxford as an undergrad and graduate student, which made this tour exceptional. She provided tips on what else to see and do while spending our day in beautiful Oxford. 11 out of 10 starrs! Thank you Mars!
