✨Why We Don't Go Inside the Colleges✨

We often get asked if we enter the University colleges.

The answer is no and that's intentional.

Oxford's colleges are mainly residential communities, a visit inside usually consists of the, chapel, and Grass Area. Some colleges are free to go in and some charge a small fee.

Instead of spending much of the tour inside one college, we show you more of Oxford's famous landmarks, streets and Harry Potter locations, giving you a far better overall experience while keeping the tour excellent value. Afterwards, we'll happily recommend which colleges are free, which charge admission and which are the best to visit in your own time.
