“I went on this Oxford ghost tour expecting a few spooky stories and a slow walk in the dark. Instead, I got a genuinely fantastic history lesson with ghosts thoughtfully sprinkled on top. The walking tour covered a huge amount of Oxford’s past, and the guide seamlessly weaved real historical context together with eerie anecdotes without it ever feeling forced or cheesy. Our guide was engaging, knowledgeable, and clearly loved both the city and its darker tales, which made the whole experience even better. Equal parts informative and atmospheric, it was a great way to see Oxford after hours. I’d absolutely recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys history.”
