Group walks
We can arrange bespoke private guided walk for groups led by a volunteer. When booking for a group, you can select a time that suits you, outside of our regularly scheduled public tours.
Our Highlights guided walks last about 75 minutes. The walks feature colourful stories from the lives of a wide range of people buried in the cemetery, from scientist Rosalind Franklin and Tesco founder Jack Cohen, to the infamous Madame Rachel.
Each guide has their own style and follows their own special interests, so every walk is unique.
Please let us know via the form below if your group requires any special considerations such as coach parking or wheelchair assistance.
For group tours we can offer refreshments in the Heritage Centre. Meals (kosher) can be ordered through our team. Please note that eating is not permitted on the grounds.
