Group Guided Tours Around STEAM

At STEAM you can have a guided tour of the Museum organised especially for your group or organisation.

Groups will be accompanied by a member of the Friends of The Museum who will talk about the exhibits, the history behind them and life as a GWR worker.

More Information

These tours are subject to the availability of guides, and so need to be booked in advance. For more details, contact Mrs Terry Nardoni on 01793 466637 or e-mail: steampostbox@swindon.gov.uk.

Guided Tour sizes are a minimum of five to a maximum of 20 people.

There are no additional costs for Guided Tour sessions, but donations to the Friends would be appreciated.
