The Cathedral's team of expert Cathedral Guides offer free guided tours every day, all year round*. 

Our tours are a fun and fascinating way to find out about the history of the Cathedral, as well as seeing the hidden gems you may not have noticed otherwise! Experts on the history of St Albans Cathedral, our Guides offer up to three guided tours every day, and are also available to answer questions more informally in between.
