What you'll see and do

Pass by without stopping
Here is a new iconic tower of Oxford, and you can easily guess that it is much older than anything you have seen so far. It dates back to the 11th century and was built around the year 1050.
Pass by without stopping
Wesley Memorial Methodist Church
The charming Rue Saint-Michel takes you straight to the Wesley Memorial Church. Not sure you know the Wesley brothers, but they're the ones who created the Methodist Church.
Pass by without stopping
Oxford Castle Prison
The city of Oxford may be best known for its incredible university, but it has many other treasures of history to tell you. Perhaps the most important is this Romanesque castle which tells a whole page of the city’s history.

Punting In Oxford
You follow the Castle Mill Stream for a moment, translate, the Castle Mill Canal. It’s an arm of the Thames and more precisely a backwater, a marigot in French. It is a part of the river in which there is little or no current.
Pass by without stopping
If you are lucky enough to be in Oxford between Wednesday and Saturday, then St George’s Square must be buzzing. Sorry about those who came on a Sunday, Monday or Tuesday, you will have to come back later if you want to know Gloucester Green Market.
Pass by without stopping
Ashmolean Museum of Art and Archaeology
The imposing neoclassical monument you have in front of you, with its 4 large columns supporting the pediment, is the famous Ashmolean Museum. It is the very first public museum in Britain!
Pass by without stopping
This elegant stone monument, which could easily be part of a religious building, commemorates the 3 martyrs of Oxford: the Bishops of London and Worcester and the Archbishop of Canterbury. The monument was built 300 years after the events of the English Reformation.
Pass by without stopping
Exeter College
Look up here towards the Exeter College bell tower on your right. It seems that a man, naked in addition, is stationed on the roof. It’s a strange sensation and an original statue to say the least.
Pass by without stopping
Trinity College
You have Trinity College on your left here. Unlike many Oxford colleges, this one is not entirely hidden and you can, from where you are, admire its gardens and the exterior architecture of its buildings.
Pass by without stopping
Sheldonian Theatre
On your right, behind its grimacing busts resembling Roman emperors, is the famous Sheldonian Theatre, one of Oxford’s most iconic historical monuments. Its construction dates from the 1660s.
Pass by without stopping
Clarendon Building
The neoclassical building next to the theatre is the Clarendon Building. At Check-out, the theatre had two functions. It was used for graduation ceremonies, but it also hosted the Oxford University Press Printing House.
Pass by without stopping
Yes, I know what you think, it’s like suddenly in Italy. Venice, even more precisely. The bridge you see in front of you, while it looks like two drops of water at the Rialto, is nicknamed the Bridge of Sighs.
Pass by without stopping
You are now at the heart of the Bodleian Library. A highlight of your visit to Oxford. You can immediately feel the presence of the place and the strength of its past. It is one of the oldest bookshops in Europe and with over 13 million items printed, it is the second largest library in England.
Pass by without stopping
Radcliffe Camera
Another Oxford landmark is the Radcliffe Camera. Or the Rad Cam for the intimates, from the Latin "camera" which means room.
Pass by without stopping
Oxford’s historic centre is so full of history that you can’t take two steps without facing an important new monument. This is the University Church of Sainte-Marie-la-Vierge.
Pass by without stopping
Brasenose College
The imposing facade you see belongs to Brasenose College, formerly called Brazen Nose College. It is one of 38 colleges that make up the University of Oxford. It was founded in 1509 by a lawyer and a bishop, and built on the site of Brasenose Hall, a medieval Oxford university hall.
Pass by without stopping
Merton College
The cobblestone streets of Oxford reveal treasures of heritage at every turn. You have previously come across the magnificent Oriel College, founded in 1324 by King Edward II of England, making it the first college in the city with a royal foundation.
Pass by without stopping
The narrow alleyway you're using now is called Logic Lane. It was previously called Horseman Lane because it led to an old horse-powered mill. But this Logic Lane runs above all along Oxford’s oldest college, and has educated Bill Clinton and Stephen Hawking among others!
Pass by without stopping
Magdalen College
Before branching off into Rose Lane, I'd like to draw your attention to Magdalen College. First of all, although it's spelt Magdalen, it's actually Maudlyn. That's how the name was pronounced centuries ago when it was founded.
Pass by without stopping
High Street
You now reach High Street, the busiest street in the city, lined with beautiful monuments. You have the magnificent facade of Queen’s College, built in honour of Queen Philippa de Hainaut, wife of King Henry III.
Pass by without stopping
You are now following part of the 13th century defensive wall that surrounded the medieval city at the time. If you climb to your left, you will see what is called a bastion. It was built to project from the wall so that those inside could fire on attackers from all directions.
Pass by without stopping
Alice’s Shop
You now join Saint Aldate’s Street, formerly Fish Street and renamed in honour of the Bishop of Gloucester considered a saint. Check out the shop with the red door at number 83. It is called Alice’s Shop and is much more interesting than just a souvenir shop.
Pass by without stopping
Finally, here you are, in front of the undisputed Rising Star of Oxford, its largest and most famous college, from which emerged no less than 13 English Prime Ministers: the famous Christchurch College. If you only have to visit one, it is this one.
Pass by without stopping
This is Oxford City Inn. The beautiful stone façade you are currently observing reveals the third building designed to accommodate the Municipality of Oxford. The very first, already installed there, dates back as far as 1290.

Why this scores 64
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Oxford Audio Guided Walking Tour 2h and 26 audio commentary: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Oxford.
How much does Oxford Audio Guided Walking Tour 2h and 26 audio commentary cost?
+
Prices start at $6 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Oxford usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Oxford Audio Guided Walking Tour 2h and 26 audio commentary take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Oxford is not rushed.
Is Oxford Audio Guided Walking Tour 2h and 26 audio commentary worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Oxford, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Oxford Audio Guided Walking Tour 2h and 26 audio commentary?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Oxford Audio Guided Walking Tour 2h and 26 audio commentary suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Oxford Audio Guided Walking Tour 2h and 26 audio commentary?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Oxford can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Oxford and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Oxford Audio Guided Walking Tour 2h and 26 audio commentary start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Oxford within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Oxford?
+
On Outty we rank every Oxford experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cotswolds in a Day Tour from Moreton-in-Marsh / Stratford-on-Avon, Oxford University Walking Tour With University Alumni Guide, Oxford Official University & City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Oxford?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Oxford?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
