Family Visit to Bletchley Park
About this experience
Take a trip with the family to the fascinating Bletchley Park for an insight into the once top-secret home of the World War Two Codebreakers. See where some of the smartest minds around like Alan Turing, Gordon Welchman and Bill Tutte helped turn the tide of war and discover the extraordinary achievements of the men and women who worked at Bletchley Park.
A place of exceptional historical importance, Bletchley Park is also a birthplace of modern information technology and has helped shape life as we know it today. Highlights of a visit include the restored codebreaking huts, with their WW2 interiors faithfully recreated and hands-on displays in the blocks where the masterminds from the Government Code & Cypher School (GC&CS) cracked enemy codes. Explore the beautiful grounds and historic buildings with an interactive multimedia guide and enjoy the atmospheric soundscapes, galleries and exhibitions.

“Incredibly engaging from beginning to end”
Really enjoyed the day, as the did all the family. I would thoroughly recommend a day here, but you need 4-5 hours at a minimum.
“excellent family day out”
we went to Bletchley with my 80+ year old mother in law and our 11 year old son and this visit was fascinating for us all. lots to do, very well managed, social distancing and safety measures in place but this didn't impact on our visit. staff were helpful and friendly. a thoroughly enjoyable day out.
