3.8 average based on 9 reviews.
our was very informative due to knowledge of tour guide. However, the 2nd guide was dreadful, she mumbled and twittered and constantly strayed from the point of the tour. One quote was the lady who first brewed beer went there. No other details given. People were leaving the bus in droves. She couldn't be heard without headphones, where the first guy was clear and concise. We wanted to hear the history of the city, not a continual list of people who happened to be educated in the various colleges. Very disappointing

Had a great tour guide with us yesterday name David. He's very knowledgeable and shared lots of interesting facts about the pubs and places we invited along in the tour. Lovely chap, we had many pleasant conversations with him and had a nice time despite the crowd in this peak season. We ended up even going to a tavern he recommended in the tour for dinner - which made our evening in Oxford even better.We were unable to take the tour due to one member of our party tripping over uneven paving stones and having to be checked out in hospital. I read the terms and conditions and assumed that refunds were never paid, based on what was written in Term 1. I complained to the company. They replied, referring me to another term/condition that allowed for refunds under special circumstances. I sent in the tickets and was informed that a refund had been processed. Thank you City Sightseeing for resolving the issue so quickly!
I always try to take an open top tour when I go to a new city. What stood out for me about this one was the friendly, helpful drivers and tour guides, including Linda. Great ambassadors for the bus company and city.
It was fantastic we bought a “hop on hop off” tickett in Oxford. Included in the ticket was a guided tour on foot around the colleges. Chris Cochran was a really good and fantastic guide. He had so much knowledge and love for the city, it was a pleasure. We learned a lot and saw many places. Was even revommended a great old pub to try out. The pub was good We have enjoyed our tour a lot. Give it a go.
