Overview

Guides with vocational qualifications, postgraduate degrees and published literature on the subject, as well as years of experience in guiding the sites, get to the heart of what matters at these locations. While knowledge certainly matters, the delivery of information in a manner that leaves you with an understanding of a period, rather than a list of events, is crucial.

  • Admission fee
  • Transport between sites

Please meet at the main entrance, behind the large naval guns which point away from the building.

We will tend to leave guests to browse the souvenir shop at the war rooms.

Meeting and Pickup

  1. Our experienced guide will guide you round the IWM main site, which details the British experience in conflict since 1914, with particular focus on the two world wars. From there you will travel to the old Cabinet War Rooms.

  2. The Churchill (or Cabinet) War Rooms housed the key tools and personnel of the British war administration between 1940 and 1945, under the leadership of Prime Minister Winston Churchill. We will look at his life and history, and explore some of the additional figures of the administration, such as the Chiefs of Staff and Churchill's principal military advisor, Hastings Ismay.
