Last weekend’s
Sunday Times featured in its
travel section an article entitled
Lyra’s Oxford, which previews scheduled tours of Oxford run by the tourist information centre through Lyra and Philip Pullman’s Oxford. The tour which lasts around two hours, takes in many of the landmarks featured in His Dark Materials, from the Pitt-Rivers museum, to the Botanic Gardens. Tours will take place on June 13th, July 25th and September 5th next year (with further dates added if demanded), with tickets priced at 7.50GBP per person. You can read the article in full and find more information
here.
Of course, it isn’t always necessary to join an organised tour - you could always do your own, as writer Ann Giles did last July. You can read her own account of her ‘Materials day out’ here.
