However, you may ask the guide, if it's possible to pay yourselves for the cost to enter on the day to the college and thus to enter there during the tour too.

PLEASE ARRIVE ON TIME:
-
Please arrive 5 minutes early for your tour at our meeting point.

INFO FOR DRIVERS AND PARKING:
-
If you are driving, then please allow extra 30-60 minutes over whatever time you think it will take you to get here. Oxford is NOT car friendly and it is congested roads and hard to find parking spaces....unless you park at the sign posted 'park and rides' on edge of town on any major road into the city and hop on their buses into city centre. The park and ride buses leave every 15 or every 30 minutes and take anything from 10 min to 30 min (depending on traffic) to reach city centre. So if you are going to drive, then please assume you should be aiming to park your car about one hour before your tour starts.
