TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience

"Visiting Oxford: Oxford is definitely best explored on foot, but don't assume you can simply walk into every university college. Visitor opening times vary, particularly during term time and examinations, so it’s very wise to check ahead if there's somewhere specific you want to see. If you're planning to go punting, Magdalen Bridge is a convenient and popular starting point, with boats available to hire for a relaxing trip along the River Cherwell."
