2 day pass - We had a 48 hour ticket. The commentary is very informative and the bus doesn’t go too fast, you can see everything it mentions. Plenty of stops in the right places. Highly recommended

City tour of Oxford by Bus and Walk - City Bus Tour is highly recommended. Easy to book (just hop on the bus and pay) Free Map and Earphones (stereo too!) Guide itself was automated on the bus and very interesting. Free walking tour was included (leaves from the information office by stop 9 every hour on the hour 45 mins) Our guide was Chris who was a retired historian and he was brilliant. So full of knowledge, took tour at a slow pace and didnt rush anywhere. Even suggested places to see after the tour which was much appreciated - 5 Stars. Carl & Hanna.

Oxford open top bus tour. - We thoroughly enjoyed our open top bus tour of central Oxford. The hour journey passed by very quickly as we listened to superb commentary from Greg our tour guide. His knowledge and passion for Oxford shone through as he gave us the background to the many amazing buildings we encountered on the journey.

Vintage London bus tour. - It is narrated by a real person which makes the experience much better. It is not a recording. The tour was only an hour and a half which was perfect.

Informative and in depth tour - The tour was very informative and in depth. Greg did an amazing job of the bus tour and for a bonus the foot tour that is included by Leslie was just as informative. We wouldn't have scratched the surface if we hadn't done the tour 👍🏻

Great tours - Took this bus trip on a sunny afternoon which was perfect for riding on the top of the double decker bus. Started out with Martin as guide. Finished up with Greg. Both good at pointing out all the buildings, history, fun facts. Answered questions well. There was a problem with some people not hearing through the headset. Greg stopped everything to correct this. Afterwards I took the walking tour with Dave D. It was him and 3 guests. I learned so much. He was entertaining as well as informative. Great combo of yours.
