a private tour. 
The ideal opportunity to see more of this beautiful, historic city in a very special way.

Autumn in Oxford


The summer was very busy in Oxford as coaches and school groups descend from around the world.  The Autumn is the perfect time for  individual travellers to get a less hectic experience and see parts of Oxford that others will not reach.   There are always some group 'public' tours running  but why walk with strangers when you can have your own private experience, in a way which suits you and with people you are happy to be with...... and an expert  guide who lives and works here and can give you plenty of ideas about how to make the most of your visit. 


A walking tour of Oxford that caters for your interests and your itinerary make your visit to this wonderful city even more special.


Email me now, ideally with a contact telephone number, and we can plan a visit to suit you.  No payment needed until tour dates are confirmed.  

TOURS
The great thing about a private tour is that you can have what you want. If you tell me your ideas and who you are bringing with you I will make recommendations based on what is happening  in Oxford at the time, your interests, stamina and budget. If you are booking last minute, we will look at the weather forecast. Tours are a minimum one hour but can last as long as you and your group have the energy. 
 90 – 120 minutes is typical. More than 3 hours requires a break. 

MINIMUM 1 HOUR

Joanna Hamilton
Your guide to Oxford

I live in Oxford, have studied here and work here. It is the most brilliant , exciting and beautiful place to be and I love showing it to people. I will give you a wonderful tour covering the city, university, our history, literature, buildings, culture and the remarkable people who have walked our streets before us. As a member of the Oxford Guild of Tour Guides who have exclusive access to some of our best-known locations you can be sure of a special tour.  I am also accredited to guide within Christ Church College.
If you would like something very specialised, I am just one of a splendid team of qualified ‘green and blue badge’ guides, accredited by the ITG (Institute of Tourist Guiding), and between us we know everything there is to know. If I think one of them will look after you better, I will put you in touch.
