Merinda 

As someone who knows Oxford quite well, having worked here for over 20 years, the tour was absolutely fascinating and packed with information I had little knowledge of. Caroline is a wonderful guide: entertaining, informative and clearly has a passion for her hometown.

I had the pleasure of attending one of Caroline's guided tours of beautiful Oxford this year. Caroline's knowledge of  the history of Oxford is impressive. She transmitted fascinationg information in a clear and dynamic way, and left us wanting to find out more. Highly recommended!

A great walk - fascinating insights with an authentic knowledgeable guide. Would definitely try one of the others walks.

Tim and Jan

The Where's the University ? tour was both interesting and very informative.  Caroline's energy and enthusiasm for her subject was very apparent as was the obvious amount of work and research she has put in.
