Secret Museum Tour

Given the close proximity to the Guide and other visitors in the group, we will not operate this daily tour until we enter Covid-19 alert level 1. If you have already booked for an upcoming date during Covid-19 alert level 2 or higher, our Bookings team will be in touch to rebook you onto a later date or to issue a refund.

Ever wonder what’s hiding in the basement of the Museum?

Don’t miss this once in a lifetime chance to explore the underground world where 95% of our treasures are stored on our new behind the scenes tour, on daily at 11.30am from Monday 6 July.

Your Secret Museum Tour guide will reveal how we look after our priceless collections and how they are kept safe for future generations. This is a rare opportunity to see some of the incredible objects that aren’t on display in our galleries and exhibitions.
