This is an R21 visit to Bletchley Park which is a heritage site and vibrant tourist attraction. Visitors can explore some of the iconic WW2 Codebreaking Huts and Blocks and see the achievements of the Codebreakers whose work is said to have helped shorten the war by two years.
The tour we are organising is a walking tour that normally runs every 15, 30 or 60 minutes depending on demand and weather etc. The tour is OUTSIDE so if it rains be prepared! Everyone has a multimedia guide issued and it is possible to visit some of the buildings.
Cost without food is £13.00 per head in a group booking of 20 or more. There is a cafe serving both hot and cold meals, coffees and of course a good old cup of tea!
Parking will be on a first come first served, but if we arrive about the same time we may be able to park next to each other. Richard is looking at arranging a meet and convoy drive to the venue. Details are:
