Self-guided campus tours

Follow our self-guided walking tours for a flavour of the University, the city and student life.

We offer self-guided tours of the Central Campus and King's Buildings. You can download our self-guided tour or pick up a paper copy from our Visitor Centre. 

We are currently updating our self-guided audio tour. This will be published here by the end of July 2025.

Accommodation tours

Access inside our student accommodation is not normally possible, as our students live here for the majority of the year.  We know how important it is for you to visualise where you might live, so we have photographs and videos available through our Virtual Visit.

The Accommodation Services website also provide more information on student accommodation, including photographs of the sites and facilities we offer.
