London to Warwick Castle and Oxford: Guided day tour

Warwick Castle thrills with towers, jousts, and gardens—where England’s medieval past bursts vividly into life. A medieval fortress turned immersive stage, Warwick Castle brings 1,100 years of history roaring to life. Climb Caesar’s Tower for sweeping countryside views before wandering the Great Hall and ramparts filled with armor and atmosphere. Depending on the season, thrill at falconry displays, jousting, or the mighty trebuchet hurling stones across the lawn. Families can brave the Horrible Histories Maze or the dramatic Dungeon Experience, while others might linger in the Peacock Garden and along the tranquil River Avon. End with clotted cream ice cream before rejoining your driver for the next adventure.

Oxford enchants with dreaming spires, world-class libraries, and riverside charm. A city where every cobblestone whispers poetry and discovery, Oxford dazzles with spires, libraries, and timeless tradition. With hours to explore, start at Radcliffe Camera and the Bodleian Library, Europe’s oldest reading rooms, before heading to Christ Church College, whose dining hall inspired Harry Potter’s Hogwarts. Stroll through leafy quads, then unwind in the Botanic Garden or along the river with a classic punt. If time allows, explore the Ashmolean Museum’s global treasures. Pause for a pint at The Eagle and Child, once Tolkien’s haunt, or enjoy afternoon tea at The Grand Café, steeped in centuries of chatter.
