Enjoy a tour exploring the lives, works and ideas of CS Lewis, JRR Tolkien and their circle. This tour is focused for an adult audience. Children may join it but the private tour option is more suitable.
This tour typically lasts 2 hours to 2.5 hours and it includes entry to Magdalen college, where CS Lewis taught. If Magdalen is ever closed, we will inform you & offer refund or reschedule date or proceed with a visit to an alternative such as Exeter college, where Tolkien studied.
This tour introduces both these famous writers and their lives here in Oxford plus offers insights into what life is like as an Oxford academic.
Magdalen entry fee worth £10 per person is included.
NOTICE: any known closures for Magdalen college will be published under the What's Excluded section.
Please note that Magdalen only permits entry to up to 10 persons with guide before we must instead pre book with Magdalen. Thus, if you book at very short notice, you may instead be asked to do private tour.

5.00Harvey was an awesome tour guide. He taught us so much about the history of CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien at Oxford. We really learned a lot. This is very much worth the cost kind of tour, (not like the cheesy fictional Harry Potter tours which would be a waste of time and money for us)
A great way to experience Oxford

5.00Isabella led a professional and illuminating tour of Oxford with an emphasis on Tolkien and Lewis. As a current Oxford student, she knew the history of all the colleges, buildings and grounds. She was patient and responsive, and made our tour memorable. Highly recommend.

5.00Enjoyed the CS Lewis and Tolkien tour with Tom. He really tailored it to our keen interest in Lewis and it was wonderful to discuss his legacy as we saw the places that inspired his faith and his literature. Would certainly recommend!
Literally literary

5.00I did a private tour of the CS Lewis and Tolkein literary journey with Alastair earlier this week. He was very generous with his time and took me around quite a bit. We covered the University Church, Magdalene College, and did a fair bit of siteseeing, including the Turf Tavern. I am happy to recommend the tours to anyone who wants to anyone who visits Oxford
