Oxford Tours
At Oxford Tours we pride ourselves on our student led tours of the University and City. Our tours are led by trained guides who are able to add their own experiences and stories as Oxford students. Our tours are the perfect blend of history and fun facts concerning current students and alumni. The tours are finely tuned to suit people of all ages and are entertaining for adults and children alike. Our tours include tales of C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Lewis Carroll, Inspector Morse, and of course... Harry Potter!
Meet Your Founder and Guide
Oxford Tours was created by Dr. Trevor Pomeroy, MA, DPhil (Oxon). Dr. Pomeroy completed his doctorate in Theology at the University of Oxford in 2018. While there are many walking tours available in Oxford, Dr. Pomeroy noticed that there was a need for a tour which emphasized Oxford's rich Christian history, while also giving guests an exciting overview of the university and city. Thus, Oxford Tours was founded. All guides at Oxford Tours have been trained by Dr. Pomeroy and all are students or former students of the university; so you can expect your tour to give you an insider's view of the university and city.
I was only spending one day in Oxford and was concerned about not being able to see enough to make my trip worthwhile.
I booked on to this tour and my concerns quickly disappeared.
My tour guide had a real passion for the city which was made apparent by his encyclopedic knowledge of all things Oxford and the energy with which this knowledge was shared.
The tour was full of History, amusing stories about life at Oxford University and a plethora of facts about the town and its most remarkable inhabitants. Combined, these elements really make the tour a must for anyone wanting to experience Oxford to its fullest.
We just finished our guided tour and it was breathtaking! Trevor is not only guide, he is also actor really and for two hours he showed us all kinds of faces of Oxford city and history with enthusiasm which I never seen before. Totally worth it, I recommend strongly and one more time - Many many thanks Trevor. You do awesome work out there!
