Tours and Experiences
Guided Museum Tours
Join us for an exclusive private tour of our museum, led by one of our expert tour guides who will share fascinating insights into the history and background of some of our most interesting exhibits.
Your tour guide will showcase a selection of key pieces from each of our exhibition rooms, and if your group has a particular area of interest, please let us know in advance and we’ll be happy to search our collection for relevant items.
Guided tours run for approximately 45 minutes, with additional time for questions, and are priced at £5 per head for a minimum of 10 people. If your group would like refreshments after the tour, we’ve partnered with several local cafés that offer discounts.

Combined Museum & Town Tours
You can combine your museum tour with a 90-minute tour of Tenterden High Street. The Town Tour starts and ends at the museum and is conducted by volunteer guides from the Local History Society. The two tours combine to give a wonderful explanation of how Tenterden developed through the ages to become the vibrant town we know today.
The combined tour costs £10 per head for a minimum of 10 people, and as with our other tours, if your group would like refreshments afterwards, we’ve partnered with several local cafés that offer discounts.

Museum Experience Nights
Our three themed Experience Nights ‘Tales of Old Tenterden’, ‘Love Stories’ and ‘Murder Mystery’ proved extremely popular in 2024, and we’re now busy preparing an exciting line up of new stories for next year. Stories are brought to life through live performances, accompanied by a selection of delicious canapes and sparkling wine, and are an unusual and entertaining way to delve into Tenterden’s past.
Bookings must be made in advance, and are priced at £25 per person, however Patrons and Members are offered a discounted price of £20 each. In addition to our scheduled Experience Nights, private party bookings can be arranged for clubs and societies on dates throughout the year.
