Experience Overview:
Oxford Food And Sightseeing TourEnjoy sampling 4 or 5 of Oxford's best and unique local food or drink market stalls or shops on this Oxford food tasting & sightseeing guided walking tour which takes in the top Oxford sights. We can cater to special dietary needs.
Food & drinks usually wine or gin tasting at a micro-brewery stall, a visit to the Oxford cheese company and or Italian style gelato plus a choice from a wide range of local, international food stalls at Oxford's international food market. You can also sample a micro brewery drink inside the Covered Market, if you wish to.
This tour introduces each college we pass on the route and sometimes it also includes entry to one of the university colleges.
NOTICE: this is NOT a tapas tour as one finds in Spain, where they enter bars and sit down. Instead we visit food stalls but there is no restaurant or bar service. Plus it's not a set fixed every time menu of choices. We make suggestions and the guide pays for the food and drink.
