Visiting as a Group
The Pitt Rivers Museum welcomes group visitors but requires all groups of 10 or more visitors (including educational and commercial groups) to book in advance.
We charge a £1.50 admin fee per person for group visits. Some groups, such as higher education institutions, further education colleges, and schools, may be exempt from this charge. Please see below for more information.
