Guided tours are one of the best ways to discover Sir John Soane's Museum, led by one of our expert guides.

On our Highlights tours, our guides will take you on a tour of the standout rooms and objects that you shouldn't miss, including the famous Picture Room and Soane's Private Apartments.

Free tours of the Private Apartments are also offered daily at 2pm, on a first-come, first-served basis. Please ask a Visitor Assistant about this during your visit.

Explore the whole range of public tours below, or find out about booking a private tour of the Soane, including after-hours

Due to the narrow Museum spaces and for the safety and comfort of our other visitors, we don’t permit external guides to lead their own tours in the Museum.
