I liked very well Oxford. I also appreciated very well the cathedrale, the church, the centre of the city and everything else. Finally I found very good the explanations of our guide, Jim.

I have had a great time at Oxford. Our bus driver/tour guide was very friendly, helpful and I really enjoyed the day. I would have liked to book another tour with you, but unfortunately had to return to Germany a few days after the tour.
