Organising a School Visit

A visit to King Arthur’s Labyrinth occupies a little over an hour. The Bards' Quest can be explored at your own pace but as a guide, it is suggested that approximately 45 minutes are allowed. Further time can be enjoyed visiting the craft workshops and adventure playground. Visitors travel into the Labyrinth in groups of 20, leaving every 15 minutes. Groups may book in advance but it is important that they arrive about 30 minutes before they are due to go underground as the tours leave promptly and groups have to go through the ticketing procedure and be fitted with helmets prior to their departure.

The boats operate to a tight schedule and they are not able to wait beyond their appointed departure time as this will delay visitors already underground.

If a party is running late we ask them to let us know as far in advance as possible so that we can try to make alternative arrangements. As spaces on subsequent tours may be booked up it may not be possible to offer a reasonable alternative.

There are two ways of booking a group into King Arthur’s Labyrinth:
1) Pre-booking with a £5 deposit will reserve seats on tours at the time you require them. Parties should then arrive 30 minutes before the booked time. If the party has not arrived by then the seats will be sold if there is a demand for them. We regret that the deposit is not refundable.

2) Pre-booking with payment for the full amount of the admission charge will ensure that the seats are available until the trip departs. However, it is essential even for pre-paid parties, that they arrive at least 10 minutes before their tour time so that they can be fitted with helmets, etc. The payment may be refunded (less a £5 administration charge) should the visit be cancelled sufficiently well in advance for us to resell the tickets.

For 2010, the school rates (for groups of 15 or more) are £6 for Adults and £4 for Children. For school visits, one teacher is permitted free of charge with every 10 fee-paying children.

The Labyrinth is open from 10 am to 5 pm each day from the end of March to the beginning of November.
