GREAT! Fans will love!
“This was a great way to see the city in a short amount of time. Our guide tour, Timothy (Tim), was AMAZING! He knew exactly what spots in the city to prioritize over others to tell Lewis’ and Tolkien’s stories. He knew so much about the two authors, the history of the city & colleges, as well. He was lovely to have conversation with and even went out of his way to go over time just a little bit to share some extra stuff. This is a great tour for those that are and are not well-versed on the lives of Lewis and Tolkien. 10/10 would recommend.”

Excellent
“Tim, our guide, allowed us to discover corners hidden from tourists, he answered all our children’s questions, he was very patient and even though we asked for the tour in Italian, he helped our children with their English lessons.”

Many thanks for this informative trek around Oxford, Tim!
“We really enjoyed this tour! Tim was friendly, relaxed, communicative and very knowledgeable about Lewis and Tolkien. He told us stories about them and walked us around Oxford to see places where the two academics had lived, studied, worked and socialised. I appreciated that Tim discussed with us at the start where we would go and told us his objectives for the tour. Five stars are well deserved and I would strongly recommend this walking tour.”

Great tour of Oxford for a group of Architects
“We had a brilliant tour with our guide Tim. He was informative and friendly and took us to some great points around central Oxford. We are a practice of Architects so he tailored the tour to places that would be of particular interest to us. We would thoroughly recommend.”

Informative and pleasantly informal
“Very considerate guide (Tim) who created a friendly atmosphere amongst the 6 participants of the tour. Took care to find shady places away from the hot sun during the tour. Tim was knowledgeable and interesting, encouraged questions which made for an enjoyable tour. The highlight for me was visiting the chapel and the dining hall in Jesus college.”
