Highlights

NOTICE: the pricing offered is ONLY my rate to hire me as your guide for the day. The price does NOT INCLUDE any additional costs to hire the taxi driver and his vehicle which currently in 2025, costs £500-550 for the day, or for you alternatively to hire a hire car yourself for you to drive. Note that I do NOT own a car! The Cotswolds has inspired not just chocolate box tins & tourist photo books but also some of England's most famous artists, like the pre Rapahelites who lived here in the 1800s. See traditional architecture, picturesque landscape & wander around beautiful villages. You have the choice of joining us for either an active but not too active cycle trip through the Cotswolds or you can sit back & enjoy the sights from our car or minibus hire.  Please note that tours are priced here as tour options for either a full day tour typically from 10am to 5pm or a half day tour from 1pm to 6pm.

About Oxford

Oxford is England's famous university city, with honey-coloured colleges, libraries, museums and river meadows beside the Thames and the Cherwell.

Oxford has been a university town since the 12th century, and its dreaming spires belong to colleges that stand shoulder to shoulder around quadrangles and gardens. The Radcliffe Camera, a round domed library, the Bodleian Library, the Sheldonian Theatre and Christ Church, whose dining hall inspired scenes in the Harry Potter films, are the best known. The Hertford Bridge, a covered footbridge nicknamed the Bridge of Sighs, links two parts of one college.

Top-ranked sights in Oxford: Bodleian Library, Radcliffe Camera, Trinity College .
