What Should I Do With Six Hours In Oxford?

If you have 6 hours or a half day to spend in Oxford, here are some suggestions:

  • Visit the historic University of Oxford campus (2-3 hours): Take a tour or wander around several of the colleges, including Christ Church, Magdalen, and Trinity. The Bodleian Library and Radcliffe Camera are also worth seeing.
  • Explore the city's pubs and restaurants (1-2 hours): Oxford has a variety of eateries, from traditional pubs like The Turf Tavern to high-end restaurants like Quod. Grab a meal or a pint and take in the local atmosphere.
  • Check out the Ashmolean Museum (1-2 hours): This world-famous museum has extensive collections of art and artifacts from around the world, including ancient Egyptian and Greek art, Asian ceramics, and European paintings.
  • Stroll through the Botanic Garden (1-2 hours): This picturesque garden is centrally located and has plenty of plant species to admire, including medicinal herbs, carnivorous plants, and exotic tropical specimens.

Of course, there are far more things to do in Oxford with more time, but any of these activities would make for a lovely half day in this vibrant city.
