Peter was amazing. Not only did he bring us treats he entertained us all day. He educated us with history of the area and brought in locations of Inspector Morse. I highly recommend him to any group.

Tom knows his Morse! Not only did he show us many locations from the series, but he know which episode and scene they come from and can practically quote every line. So informative!

Tom was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide who gave us exactly what we wanted without unnecessary and irrelevant facts. We can now rewatch the entire Trilogy, and have the fun of saying "We were there"! Commendable.

Renata was brilliant. Two of the three hadn’t really watched any of the Morse/Lewis/Endeavour series and so she had a difficult balancing act but she managed fabulously. Lots of tv facts interspersed with a history of the city and the University and a bit of Harry Potter thrown in. She was energetic and friendly and we all really enjoyed it (even if the teenager’s face didn’t necessarily register that!).

Peter conducted a well-planned tour that left us wanting more. He noted that we were also interested in the Potter-verse and the Inklings so shared some info about them too. Hearing that we were going to visit Bath he confided that he grew up there and emailed us his Bath what-to-see recommendations. He also sent us emails about the Morse and Potter universes after calling us on the night we did the tour to check if we had any more questions. His enthusiasm and commentary had us expecting to see Morse, Lewis, Endeavour or Colin Dexter at any moment. This is a must do for any Morse fan visiting Oxford.
