Most of my WALKS are for pre-booked groups (starting at £60 inclusive for up to 20/24 people). However, if you as an individual, or as part of a small group, would like to arrange a walk, do please still feel free to get in touch at oxfordtowpathpress@gmail.com. Or, for £30 for up to five people (lasting 90 minutes or so), you can suit yourself as to start time time and exact route.

Not sure? Please have a look at my ‘Customer Comments’ page.

TALKS elsewhere

I am happy to travel! I have given talks in numerous places in England and Wales, and on two short tours of the Republic of Ireland, and as far away as Assam in north-east India – partly as a result of my Indian ancestry. In March 2027 I will be speaking at Festival of Nonsense in Whitby.
