This magical walking tour is led by an award-winning Green Badge tour guide. It will introduce you to the extraordinary history and people who've shaped our city of dreaming spires. From Alice in Wonderland to JRR Tolkien, Oxford has inspired many timeless stories. But its real history is just as fascinating, and often just as strange…
As we walk around Oxford's famous buildings and explore its world-renowned university and colleges this glorious city will reveal its secrets to you.
This is a great tour if you only have a short time in Oxford or are visiting for the first time. I can tailor it to your interests so let me know if you are particularly interested in Harry Potter, Tolkien, CS Lewis, Morse, Alice in Wonderland etc. If you want to visit a specific college or the Divinity School you will have to pay an extra entrance fee - we can discuss the options when you book.

This 'Rebels and Radicals' was an excellent, fascinating and original tour of Oxford sites which Jess conducted with verve and humour. We visited some interesting places around the centre of town associated with rebellious people over the history of the town starting back in the 14 century all the way to the present day. Jess was ready to answer questions and tell more stories if asked! Would highly recommend this for a group for a different, fun and thought provoking perspective on the history of Oxford, for locals and visitors.

I joined a small group on Jess' brilliant Rebels and Radicals tour. Jess was absolutely fantastic. She told us all sorts of fascinating information about riots, rebellions, uprisings, many inspiring heroes (and at least one villain). I'm now hoping I'll remember her amazing stories to impress my friends! I would whole-heartedly recommend Jess - she's so articulate and well prepared, and I'd love to go on another tour with her. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Thanks so much for helping to welcome our students to Oxford. We had a new group of science DPhil students, some had lived in Oxford for years, some were new to the city (and UK). It was such a well thought out tour making sure all students were included. There were lots of new stories I hadn't heard before and it was so well tailored to the interests of their course. I really enjoyed it and learned loads. Jess is BRILLIANT

We (13 lucky partners of conference delegates) enjoyed a brilliant walking tour by Jess on a damp and windy morning. For most, English was not the first language, so Jess spoke carefully and clearly and kept us all engaged and entertained. We really couldn’t have asked for better, so would thoroughly recommend her. Her timing was also impressive, returning us on the dot to where we needed to be, having managed to cram in all the Oxford highlights. Well done, Jess and thank you.

Jess was an incredible guide. She communicated well prior to our tour and went above and beyond. It was informative and fun. We would highly recommend her to anyone.

I can't recommend Jess highly enough. I met her when I took one of the regular literary tours offered by the Oxford Bodleian Library, and I was so impressed by her guiding that I hired her as a private guide. I'm very glad I did! I told her my interests--some of them out-of-the-way--and she designed the perfect tour for me. It was totally engaging: tailored to my interests, but also with stops that were a delightful surprise. And she was great company throughout--warm, funny, and deeply knowledgeable. (I don't think I asked a single question she couldn't answer.) She gives great group tours through the Bodleian--but, if you can possibly manage it, do arrange a tour with her around your particular interests. Jess is really exceptional!

The tour was brilliant. Jess is so knowledgeable and has fascinating stories about the alternative Oxford. Loved the town and gown contrast over time and the riots.

Jess was very engaging, full of facts and tailored to our needs. We really enjoyed the tour and the history was well presented and made interesting. Punctual and adapted the tour to fit the graduation that was happening on the day of our visit. Good communication and presentation.

Jess made our tour to our demand. She’s very friendly and knowledgeable about Oxford and has stories that are not in the tourist books. So we enjoyed it very much!
