Christ Church is my favourite place to take visitors in Oxford, because it is home to so many wonders. I'm lucky enough to be one of the few guides accredited to take private tours inside. The college caps these at 5 people, so they are very exclusive!
Christ Church is the most famous college in the world's oldest English-speaking university, unique in having a chapel that's also a cathedral.
It has been a place of worship for 1300 years, founded by a feisty Saxon saint before Oxford even existed.
Over time it became home not just to 1000s of scholars but to the real Alice in Wonderland and, more recently, a famous boy wizard.
I invite you to travel back in time via the spectacular Tudor dining hall, miraculously rescued ancient shrine, carved throne of doomed King Charles I, fabulous Hogwarts staircase and rare medieval stained glass windows to get a history of not just the college, but England itself.
IMPORTANT: I'll need to check the college's availability before confirming.
