Combine your open-top bus tour with a climb up Carfax Tower!
Carfax Tower is all that remains of the 12th century St Martin’s Church, the official city church of Oxford from 1122. In 1896, the main part of the church was demolished to make more room for traffic in the area.
The tower is 74 feet tall and no building in central Oxford may be constructed higher than it.
Climb the 99 steps to the top of the Carfax Tower for a breath-taking view over the Oxford skyline!
Combined tickets are available online at: www.citysightseeingoxford.com/carfax-tower
