About

Visitors can choose from a range of themed walks – from daytime city and university tours and ghost‑filled evening adventures to pilgrimages to Harry Potter film sites and C.S. Lewis & J.R.R. Tolkien hotspots. Tours run daily, many starting on the hour between 11 am and 4 pm, and are fully inclusive of college admission fees. The company prides itself on flexible, walk‑in‑style bookings while still recommending early reservations during peak seasons.
