Guided tours of the Museum

We can provide guided tours of Peterborough Museum for individuals or groups, although these need to be booked at least a week in advance (subject to availability) and cost £5 for adults or £3 for concessions. Tours last about 90 minutes and cover the major items on display, the history of the museum building and include a look behind the scenes. We also offer these as as free, on spec tours as part of some events weekends throughout the year.

Group bookings

Groups can book to attend the Museum in the evenings and either look around by themselves or have a guided tour. We need two weeks notice for this type of booking. Fees are as per the regular guided tours, (£5 adults, £3 concessions) but we do have a minimum charge of £75 per group, we can even provide a tour with a costumed guide. We can also provide tea, coffee and biscuits at a charge of £1.50 per person for groups by prior arrangement, subject to availability.
