What people say:
"We had the absolute pleasure of touring Oxford with Tim, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip. Tim was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the history, architecture, and famous alumni of Oxford, but he delivered everything with such charm, wit, and enthusiasm. His passion for the city is infectious, and he brought the streets and colleges to life with fascinating stories and insights. We came away with a much deeper appreciation of Oxford’s rich history and culture, and we were entertained every step of the way. Tim was a delightful guide—warm, engaging, and full of interesting facts that you’d never find in a guidebook. We would highly recommend this tour. Thank you, Tim, for a truly memorable day "
