The most Distinguished alumni are Prime Ministers, Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair, actor Hugh Grant and four time Olympic gold Medallist Matthew Pinsent. Oxford’s Botanic Gardens have existed for almost four centuries and any visit to Oxford wouldn’t be complete without trying a hand at “punting” in Oxford’s equivalent of a gondoler.
