About this activity

Our Cambridge Green Badge guides were trained by the the Fitzwilliam Museum itself. They have a thorough knowledge of the extensive range of exhibits. Visiting the Fitzwilliam can be daunting due to its size and variety of its galleries. We will take you straight to key exhibits, many of which are not well highlighted. After your tour you may choose to return to your favourite galleries and linger over the items that most interest you.
