Its dreaming spires dominate the city skyline. But Oxford has
more than just the University; interesting museums including Britain's

Plan
for the day
|
After
arriving in Oxford in mid-morning, you can take an optional professional
guided tour of the city. The walking tour will take in the sights
of the city centre and the colleges explaining the history of the
University and its associated stories. After the tour, you will
have free time to do what you like. Alternatively, visit the Oxford
Story, where you can climb aboard one of Europe’s longest indoor
‘dark’ rides to explore the University’s early beginnings
and fascinating facts behind its record-breaking discoveries. Then
wander the college-lined streets or the beautiful parks to soak
up the atmosphere of one of the world's great academic cities. Back
to Cambridge early evening. |
