“All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players.”

Explore the iconic Globe Theatre, where expert guides bring to life the captivating history of this famous wooden 'O'. Learn how the original 1599 theatre endured the plague, fire, and political oppression, and was reborn in the 1990s through one man’s visionary efforts. 

The 50-minute tour is led by guides and storytellers who vividly recreate the Elizabethan atmosphere through live demonstrations, stage fighting, and a lesson on 17th-century script printing.

In addition to your tour, you can also visit the new walk-through exhibition space, where you can immerse yourself in the sights, sounds, and secrets of Shakespeare’s London, spanning over 400 years of history. Relive some of the Globe’s most iconic shows with seasonally curated displays, and even prepare for the stage yourself with interactive costumes and props!

The Shakespeare's Globe Guided Tour lasts 50 minutes. However, you should plan to spend about two hours at the Globe to include time for exploring the exhibition space on your own.

During your visit, it’s possible that the Globe Tour will visit multiple floors within the theatre. These levels are accessed by four or eight flights of stairs, using an external stairway tower.

The Globe are able to offer lift access to other floors, subject to operations.

The theatre is open-air and tours will go ahead in all conditions, so dress for the weather!

The Shakespeare's Globe Guided Tour is conducted in English.
