City walk tour

Published on Mar, 2025

Great tour guide and hop on hop off experience. Thank you Chris Cochran for the city walk tour. Very knowledgeable and so patient with our 7 year old!

Awesome

Published on Mar, 2025

I had a wonderful time on the hop on hop off bus. Greg was extremely knowledgeable and charming on the tour and answered all my questions. He also gave great advice on restaurants and pubs. I would highly recommend.

Oxford - One of the better hop on Hop off tours

Published on Mar, 2025

Great day tour around Oxford, lots to see. Paid a little extra for a guided tour half way through. Highly recommended and worth the extra few pounds. Our guide Chris Cochran was wonderful, knows the history so well and was a true gentleman.

Great city, great tour (and guide)

Published on Mar, 2025

I recently had the please of being shown around Oxford by our guide, Lesley, on a company retreat. It was a wonderful way to learn more about the history of the city and university, and see the sights; as someone who grew up in Oxford, I learned far more than I was expecting! Lesley was knowledgeable and personable, and made the experience a brilliant one.

Hop on hop off

Published on Mar, 2025

We recently visited Oxford for a long weekend and used the hop on hop off bus tour. Really enjoyed it. Very informative and we saw everything we had planned on seeing. Our driver Nik Phillips was brilliant. Gave us good tips on places to go. Well worth it.
