We offer tailored tours for people who are Blind or Partially Sighted across the Oxford University Gardens, Libraries and Museums
Touch Tours take place on the 2nd Thursday of each month, usually from 11am - 12noon at various venues across the Oxford University Gardens, Libraries and Museums (GLAM).
The tours are free but booking is essential.
Whether you are visiting for the first time or a regular visitor, and you can be sure of a warm welcome.
Below are the sessions we have coming up until June 2025:
