Oxford City Walking Tours

Aside from the award-winning open-top bus tours, we also operate a range of fantastic walking tours in and around Oxford!

All of our official guided walking tours are quality assessed and provided by highly trained, knowledgeable and experienced guides to ensure you fully enjoy your Oxford experience. 

You’ll have a few options for walking tours!

Stepping Through Oxford Walking Tour

Duration: 45 mins

Discover the main attractions of Oxford, learn about the history of our fascinating city and have all your questions answered by our friendly and professional tour guides. We have recently finished working on a project that aimed to make the City Sightseeing attraction all-inclusive. Up until now, we have advised that the walking tour (referring to the free 45min walking tour) was not accessible for wheelchair users. Not anymore!  With the help of Diane Sider, a member of the committee ‘Unlimited Oxford’ we worked out a route for the 45-minute tour (same tour, same highlights, same duration), which is now accessible to everyone.

Town & Gown Walking Tour

Duration: 90 mins

Discover the wider area of Oxford City Centre with our longer Town & Gown Walking Tour. You’ll have a chance to learn about the history of our fascinating “city of dreaming spires” and have all your questions answered by our friendly and professional tour guides.

The Oxford Ghost Tour
