Bodleian Library

Bodleian Library

Interactive and stimulating tours of the historic university where much of Harry Potter was filmed! Like stepping into their favourite films. Most tours are for 10+ but Family Tours in holidays welcome 5+.

See the oldest parts of the University, learn about their history, and see where Harry Potter was filmed! A must see in Oxford with children. The tour is interactive and stimulating, with lots of participation, if you get a chance to do it you absolutely should! 

Plus you can try Thomas Bodley's History Trail for children where they explore the buildings using a sheet of simple but fun questions.

Be aware that the Bodleian doesn't have a loo so currently the closest public toilets are located outside Covered Market, in Market Street (300m away).

The address given is for the University itself, please plan your journey within it independently.
