Itinerary
Day 1
Head to your hotel in Oxford. Depending on the time you arrive, you'll be able to enjoy an included afternoon tea. Later, meet your fellow guests at a get-together, enjoy a complimentary Christmas cocktail, and sit down for a three-course dinner. This evening, why not take part in the hotel’s light-hearted Christmas quiz?
Day 2
After breakfast on Christmas Eve, enjoy an included half-day tour of Oxford. At the city’s medieval heart is a maze of pretty streets filled with festive charm. Dotted around the city are Oxford University's colleges, each with its own character – from majestic Christ Church to striking New College. Other sights include the Bodleian Library and the Radcliffe Camera, familiar to devotees of Inspector Morse or Harry Potter. This evening try to "guess the weight" of the chef's Christmas cake, before enjoying a glass of mulled wine and some carol-singing. A three-course dinner will be served before the chance to play some traditional games and attend a local church service, should you wish.
