Our programme of public walks for 2018 has now concluded. We will return with scheduled tours every Thursday from May to October next year. 

We hope you will be able to join us in 2019 to embark upon a voyage of medical discovery!

Public scheduled tours run every Thursday from May through to October starting at 2pm at the Royal College of Physicians on The Regent’s Park, or another major medical institution. A number of new walks will feature in the programme for the coming year. For a feel for the range of tours on offer see our 2018 schedule below. 

Our 2019 programme of public tours will appear here from March and be available to book online. 

All scheduled tours cost £12 per person (apart from study days which are clearly marked)  you can book online free of charge by:

• Visiting the home page for your chosen walk or tour.
• Selecting a tour from the list below and clicking on the link.
• Choosing a date using the Book Our Public Walks Online facility via the Eventbrite calendar in the sidebar on the right of this, and every, page.

A very limited number of tickets are available on the day, if you would like to take up one of these places (subject to availability) please pay the guide directly in cash. 

When arriving look out for the signs for our tours at the entrance to the Royal College of Physicians.
