Family Treasure Hunt
Be history detectives. How can you tell parts of Dorking are old? Why not try a family tour of Dorking? Find out about Dorking’s past as the children look for clues of the past by finding features that match the photos on the quiz sheet. Collect a prize at the end of the walk.
The tour can last an hour up to 90 minutes, however, please feel free to leave when your children are tired. Children must be accompanied. Tickets cost £4.00 per family. Tours leave from the Museum
These walks run from April – October. Please see our booking page for dates and to book your tickets.
Museum volunteer, Robin Cooper, has created this brilliant paper model of The Mayflower for you to print out and create at home.
