We offer regular tours of the City's historic Guildhall, a building that dates back to the 1400s - and even further back. Learn about how the City operates, its livery companies, famous events that took place within its medieval walls and admire the impressive memorials to some of Britain’s most important historic figures.
Tours start promptly at 11.00 am and last about an hour. They take place monthly on the day of the Common Council meeting (7 Mar, 25 Apr, 23 May, 20 June, 25 July, 12 Sept, 10 Oct, 5 Dec 2024). Why not go along afterwards and see the City’s democracy in action?
Please note children must be accompanied at all times.
The tour costs £12 per person. You need to book this in advance and your booking will only be valid when it is confirmed. Payment on the day to the guide by cheque or cash.
