Basement & Tunnel Tours

Our popular Basement & Tunnel tours offer an unpolished, behind-the-scenes glimpse of areas of the building not normally open to the public. Discover more about life below stairs for Royal Pavilion servants and see the vaulted basement used as an air raid shelter during WWII. The tour ends with a visit to the tunnel which led to George’s royal stables and riding school.

Please note: the tour is underground, and includes areas which have low ceilings, steep stairs, uneven flooring and/or are dimly lit. Suitable for children over 12, who must be accompanied by an adult (not suitable for buggies). Due to the service areas covered in the tour it may be subject to last minute cancellations and alterations.
