Discover the University of Oxford on a walking tour led by a recent graduate. Spend an unforgettable 90 minutes in the world's greatest university, exploring the university's colleges, libraries, and the city's most iconic landmarks.

Begin your tour at St Michael at the Northgate; one of the oldest buildings in Oxford. We'll then continue to Balliol College, one of the oldest colleges in Oxford. Learn how the college system works and hear about some of the guide's experiences of college life.

Next, we'll head to Trinity College. If we're lucky, we'll go inside to see the chapel, quads, dining hall, and libraries, letting you see how a college works day-to-day. (Alternatively, we'll go inside Divinity School).

Next, visit the Sheldonian Theatre, the ceremonial theatre of the University of Oxford. Find out about the secretive ceremonies that happen here, and why your head might hurt at the end of your graduation.

See the Bridge of Sighs, one of the most famous sites at the University of Oxford. There'll be plenty of time to take photos!

Visit the Bodleian Library, the main library in the University of Oxford. Go inside Schools Quadrangle, where you can see the old lecture rooms, incredible stonework, and the most impressive frontispiece in the whole of England.

Visit the Divinity School, the oldest, and perhaps most beautiful, building in the University of Oxford. With its stunning vaulted ceiling, fascinating artefacts, and an incredible history to go with it, this is something you really don't want to miss. (Alternatively, we'll go inside Trinity College).

See the Radcliffe Camera, the most iconic building in Oxford; now the history faculty library for the University. Learn how students use the library today and explain why it’s often considered the perfect place to take a nap.

Visit All Souls College, the most prestigious college in Oxford, and why they still set the hardest exam in the world.

See St. Mary’s Passage, C. S. Lewis' inspiration for Narnia. See the lamppost that ended up on the other side of a wardrobe, and discover the familiar faces hiding in plain sight.

See the Examination Schools, where all Oxford students take their exams. If you're there at the right time, you might even see students wearing academic robes before they go inside.

Continue to Merton College, known as the most academic college in Oxford. Learn about the mysterious 'Time Ceremony', and find out why you might see a Merton student walking backwards at two o'clock in the morning...

Visit Christ Church, a college known for its prime ministers, Alice and Wonderland, and a cathedral for a chapel. Discover how and why Christ Church got its reputation, and find the best spots to see its towers.

End your tour in the beautiful Christ Church Meadow. From there, guidance can be given on the best things to do in Oxford.
