Ivory Towers and Dreaming Spires - The University of Oxford History & Science Tour

Explore the colleges and museums of Oxford University with a qualified Scientist and Oxford Expert Guide. Step into the quadrangles corridors, halls and chapels of an iconic Oxford College (or two) to discover the life of the students and scholars of one of the most prestigious centres of learning in the world. You will explore the wonders of Christ Church - the college that produced no less than 13 Prime Ministers - with one of its select few accredited guides. Marvel at the magnificent staircase and great hall with its world-class collection of stained glass to understand why it has come to be known as the 'Cathedral of the City of Oxford'. Then to the library and the Divinity School, the ancient place of examination, before we head to the History of Science Museum and the University Museum of Natural History Museum to see the world-class discoveries made in this great seat of learning - from Einstein's famous blackboard and Penicillin to the first Dinosaur and the last surviving specimen of the Dodo.
