Response from Host , Jul 2021

Thank you very much for your 5 star review, I am so glad you enjoyed our 'Simply Oxford Tour' - we do tend to keep tours small - often at least half the size of other groups in Oxford so these tours do represent outstanding value for money! Thank you again and with very best wishes Heidi

Great tour, the tour guide was very informative and made the tour very interesting, due to covid most buildings of interest were closed but that didn't stop us enjoying our time spent on this tour.

Perfect Oxford experience

A very enjoyable and informative tour. Heidi is a superb guide and I would strongly recommend this tour to all visitors. The pace of the tour is comfortable and yet we seemed to cover a lot of ground and topics whilst absorbing the beautiful architecture of Oxford. Plenty of opportunities to ask questions. The experience was enhanced by the effective audio equipment. On reflection I wish I’d booked direct as I was unaware that Tripadvisor took a large commission.
