Uncomfortable Oxford

Uncomfortable Oxford is a walking tour company dedicated to providing uniquely engaging tours that feature diverse stories. We are a certified social enterprise and a female-led company. Out tours are led by local academic researchers and highlight histories of race, gender, class, disability, and legacies of empire. We go beyond traditional narratives and provide a new way to learn about the iconic city and its complex history. Explore the beautiful city centre with us and discover the unknown stories we bring to light through research and storytelling. Tours run weekly and can be booked on our website. Uncomfortable Oxford was founded by students at the University in 2018 as part of a public engagement with research initiative.
