Book a group visit

If you are planning a special visit for a group of ten or more, we are happy to tailor a guided tour to suit your party’s needs.

Admission to the Old Royal Naval College is free of charge, however, to fully appreciate the unique history of the site we highly recommend that groups book a dedicated guided tour with one of our expert Yeomen guides who will bring these magnificent buildings to life.

Highlights of the tour include a visit to the neoclassical Chapel of St. Peter and St. Paul, the magnificent Painted Hall by Sir James Thornhill, and exclusive access to the 140-year-old Skittle Alley and Jacobean Undercroft.

All guides are professionally qualified and offer extensive knowledge of the site. In addition to our regular guided tours, our Yeomen can run specialist tours relating to the maritime history, architecture and royalty, movies and ghosts connected with the Old Royal Naval College.

Group tours cost £5 per person and are for groups of 10 or more.

Please note: The minimum charge is £50 if there are 10 or less attendees on the day.
