From London: Downton Abbey Tour and Walking Tour of Oxford
About this experience
Leave London and travel to Oxford, home to one of the world's oldest universities. See Oxford's architecture, including colleges with stone walls, chapels, halls, and libraries. Enjoy a walking tour of Oxford with your guide, then have free time for lunch at a local pub.
Next, visit Bampton, which was featured in the Downton Abbey series. See the church, Matthew Crawley's mother's house, and the hospital.
Continue to Highclere Castle, known for its role in Downton Abbey. Built by Sir Charles Barry, the castle is home to the Earls of Carnarvon. Tour the main hall, library, and sitting rooms featured in the series.
After the tour, walk through the parklands designed by Lancelot “Capability” Brown, or relax with tea and cake in a tea room. You’ll receive a copy of Lady Carnarvon's autobiography as a souvenir. Return to London at approximately 19:00.
