What to expect
Meet your professional driver guide in Southampton and relax in the comfort of an air-conditional vehicle as you make your way to Oxford and Blenheim Palace.
When you arrive in Oxford (approx. 1.5 hours away), you'll enjoy a walking tour of this fascinating University City which has been the home to scholars and royals for over 800 years. Your guide will lead you through the historic city center where you will learn about Oxford’s history, the University of Oxford, famous people who have graced the city, and interesting old traditions.
The next stop is the UNESCO-listed Blenheim Palace, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful palaces in the UK with over 300 years of history and over 2000 acres of landscaped gardens and grounds. It was also the birthplace of Winston Churchill. You will discover wonderful paintings and tapestries as well as stunning examples of baroque architecture. If that wasn’t enough then perhaps just to gaze out over the enchanting lakes towards the surrounding forests, or why not try your hand at escaping the maze!
After your tour of Blenheim Palace, you will depart for the direct journey to London.
