Things to see and do at Oxford University
Oxford is not a campus university, so it is not all located on one site. It is made up of many different buildings, including academic departments, colleges and halls, located around the centre of Oxford. Many University buildings, such as gardens, libraries and museums, as well as many of the colleges, are open to visitors during the day, although please note that they may have varying opening hours, fees and rules for groups.
You can find more information, including opening times and fees, at the links below:

Tours of Oxford University
Oxford University does not organise tours.
However, walking tours of Oxford, which include visits to college and University sites, are offered each day by the Oxford Guild of Guides. These tours last about two hours and can be booked at the Visitor Information Centre at 15-16 Broad Street, or online at the Experience Oxfordshire website. Specialist tours are available on a wide range of topics, including architecture, science, literature and art.
A number of independent operators also offer guided tours of Oxford. A range of general and themed tours are available, as are tours by cycle, rickshaw and bus. For a list of tour companies, please visit the Daily Information website.
Please note that all operators are independent of Oxford University. Details are provided here for information only.
Disabled access
The collegiate University is committed to improving access and is currently continuing to develop its Access guide. As more of our historic buildings are modified the Access guide will become more comprehensive. In the meantime, the Access guide is a helpful first point for information on accessible buildings. Where there are gaps in the information we suggest you contact the places you wish to visit directly.
