A SIGHTSEEING tour of the city is being flogged for just under £300 on voucher discount site Groupon.

The private tour offers to show visitors where locals eat whilst showcasing the city's hotspots.

It boasts four to five pit-stops at 'local market stalls' plus entry into university colleges 'wherever possible'.

The tour, which costs £299.99, lasts 2 hours and 30 minutes and starts outside of the Oxford Visitor Information Centre.

Organisers say the tour includes food and drink tasting portions, but does not include a tip or guaranteed entry to the colleges.
