Details
Your Oxford adventure begins at the historic Folly Bridge, a site where oxen once crossed the Thames and which later saw the very origins of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" when Lewis Carroll first told the tale to Alice Liddell and her sisters during a boat trip starting from this spot. The bridge itself, reconstructed in the 1820s, carries centuries of stories within its stones, from the days of Friar Bacon's study, a 13th-century defensive tower, to the bustling present. Prepare to launch your Wanderlist treasure hunt from this iconic landmark, stepping into a real-world puzzle that will guide you through the city's charming streets and hidden corners.
