Why we love Oxford Castle & Prison
"If I had the time to read history books, I would. But who needs a book when you can experience some of the country’s best history and have a day out at the same time? Our live guide was excellent and had no problems answering my children’s interesting questions (where did the prisoners go to the toilet? Being one!). We loved seeing Oxford from a completely different perspective."
Ana, Director of Chatting - Keetoo Crew ✌️
