Guided tours

We warmly recommend exploring our museum sites with a guided tour. We offer guided tours focusing on the fascinating history of the museum quarter and the Drake House. At present, guided tours to the Roos House are not available due to the renewal of the permanent exhibition

Guided tours are available on the museum’s opening days (Tue–Sun 11:30–16:00 and Thu 11:30–18:00). Please note that holiday periods may affect tour availability. Tours must be booked at least 10 days prior to your visit using the form below. Pricing information for guided tours can be found in the descriptions below

Pay with credit card or invoice

Please arrive on time to ensure the tour can start as scheduled. We will not extend the allocated time due to late arrival. Guided tours must be cancelled no later than 3 days before the booked date. For later cancellation, you will be charged the full price of the tour. We will also charge the full price, if the group fails to show up (aka the group is a no-show).
