Meet at London Marylebone outside the WHSmith from 12.30pm to give you time to get tickets or group saves (see photo below) to get the 13.07pm train from London Marylebone that gets to Oxford for 14.35pm.

The organizer will take this train enroute so will meet you at Oxford.

Are also trains to Oxford from Paddington should you wish to use that line instead.

Meet outside Oxford train station for the walk to start at 14.35pm after the train from London arrives.

The walk should finish before 4.00pm after which we can go for drinks and food. You could arrive earlier than the walk if you want to do shopping or visit any museums.

Train cost should be approx £25.00 or less with a groupsave or network card discount.

Car to Oxford: Suggested you use one of the park and rides (https://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/cms/public-site/park-and-ride) close to Oxford city centre. All have regular buses into the centre (please leave enough time to park and check for restrictions).

Please note the organizer will be taking the train from High Wycombe and meet you outside Oxford Rail Station so you will need to arrange your own train tickets in London.
