I’ve joined another walking tour last year so I had a basis of comparison now. This time I was a bit disappointed as the tour and the guide was not as upbeat as last year I had. I was also disappointed that we did not go into the building where Oxford students are held after their graduation or the scene of the infirmary in Harry Potter movie. There was also not much inside information about Oxford unlike the one I had last year (probably bcoz last year the tour guide was an Oxford student)

While it is a 1 1/2 hour tour, there is no great distances of walking involved. The tour guide (Magnus) was very easy to follow (no difficult accent and talking relatively slow, loud and clear). He was also quite funny while giving many details about the history and present time operation of the various buildings, universities etc. in Oxford. I'd definitely recommend getting a tour when you go to Oxford. There is so much to see that you'll miss it if you don't get guided.

Our 12midday guide on Saturday was excellent, he made us feel welcome and his knowledge of Oxford and University history and student life was very interesting. We did not feel rushed and was disappointed when it ended.
