A terrific private walking tour - Hannah was a great tour guide. She had stories to tell about the history of each stop on our walk. We learned a lot about Oxford city and University.

Fascinating tour of Oxford’s History - Hannah created a custom tour just for me which was fantastic. She’s incredibly knowledgeable about Oxford and each of the Colleges. It was wonderful to get a look at some of the buildings and hear the history. She was even able to point out things I would’ve missed trying to tour on my own like the date 1588 carved into the timber of one of the buildings. I highly recommend Hannah!

Wonderful and informative talk! - Rather than go on a physical tour, Hannah provided a tailored talk to a village society I am involved in. Many of the members are elderly and with limited mobility so, instead, Oxford came to us!
We met to discuss the contents and format of the talk, and then we were provided with a very interesting and engaging presentation which was extremely enjoyable.
