School visits to Guildford

Guildford can provide a wealth of experiences for school groups covering many aspects in the curriculum. A trip from 10am to 2pm will cost a maximum of £2.50 per child - and depending on the places you wish to visit - could be completely free!

  • Free guided walks around town with the Guildford Town Guides on their History of Guildford walk.  Walks can be tailored to specific subjects on request.
  • Free entry to Guildford Museum with its displays on Victorian childhood; Romans and Saxons.  Loan boxes are also available.  Objects can be made available to handle.  Worksheets available.
  • Free entry to Guildford House Gallery - this 17th century Grade I Listed town house has a constantly changing programme of temporary exhibitions covering a range of subjects and genre - enquire about the exhibitions at time of booking.
  • Free entry to The Guildhall.  Guided tour of this Elizabethan courthouse and chance to see the Civic plates.
  • Free entry to the Castle Grounds with its stunning floral displays in the summer - the perfect picnic area on a sunny day.
  • Entry to the Castle Keep is £1.50 per child.  This medieval keep includes a model of how it originally looked, and displays on its history.  Talks by museum staff available on request.

If you are unfortunate enough to come on a rainy day, we can provide somewhere indoors for the group to eat their picnic lunch and advise on toilet facilities around the town.
