Lady Gargoyle Oxford Tours
Details
Jess Worth, an award-winning Green Badge tour guide with over 25 years of experience in Oxford, is the knowledgeable and enthusiastic individual behind Lady Gargoyle Oxford Tours. She offers a variety of themed walking tours, including popular Ghost Tours that delve into the city's eerie past and haunted locations, such as St Michael at the North Gate tower and the Bodleian Library. These highly-rated tours aim to entertain by sharing spooky stories and dark secrets, while also respectfully recounting the true, and often gruesome, histories of real people. Beyond the supernatural, Jess’s repertoire includes Literary Oxford, Radical Oxford, art and architecture tours, and explorations themed around Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and Alice in Wonderland, promising a unique perspective on the city.
The tours are designed to be bespoke and cater to all interests and ages, whether you're looking to uncover Oxford's hidden gems for the first time or deepen your existing knowledge of the city. Typically, a standard walking tour lasts around two hours, often beginning and ending at Carfax Tower, though Jess is flexible and can arrange shorter or longer experiences, including full-day itineraries with recommendations for local eateries. While she primarily runs private tours, with rates starting from £150 for a two-hour excursion, public tours are also available, offering an engaging way to experience Oxford's rich history, from tales of 'town vs gown' riots and determined Suffragettes to the literary legacies woven into its streets.
