Children under the age of 11 are not allowed on the upper Bodleian Library tours.

If under 11, they can still visit public parts like exhibitions, the ground floor of the Weston Library, but not enter the Old Library or the Radcliffe Camera

Tours inside the Bodleian Library

Tours of the Bodleian Library are given by the Library’s own in-house guides.

Pictured here is Jess, a French speaking guide and one of the Bodleian guides. Her excellent tour of the Duke Humfrey Library is in English.

It is usually best to book your tour directly with the Bodleian.

A limited number of tickets (25%) are released one month before the tour date, while the majority (75%) are released on the day of the tour. Tickets can be purchased online through the link below or in person at the Weston Library, where there is often a queue.

Tickets go on sale at 9 am on weekdays.

At weekends, tickets are ONLY sold in person at the Weston Library.
