Our guide was very knowledgeable about both Oxford and Harry Potter. He was very friendly and made the tour fun - a true Hufflepuff. New college was closed and it doesn’t go as far as Christchurch, but we still saw a lot.

Our guide was very friendly, passionate about the topics, and cared about our experience! I just think with so much history and stuff to see, I should have selected a different type of tour (more history and faster pace).

Overhyped, nothing extraordinary, don't waste your money and time. They just take you to see a hall and library (entrance only). You are not allowed to touch anything in library and they don't even show you entire library. The staff makes you stand at entry gates of library and just keep narrating history of university. Well you can read/ watch history online and see images. Wont recommend it to anyone.

Very disappointing. Guide was pleasant but only went into one building which costs around ten pounds each. We paid $298 for six of us. Wish I had used this on something else. Royal Kensington Palace cost $180 for us all including gardens and headsets. Not sure how the price of this trip can be justified. I feel rather duped at this price.
