Do you want to delve deeper into the lives of the Brontës? 

Our private tours offer a personalised exploration of the lives and works of this extraordinary family. 


You’ll be guided through the Museum by an expert, with the opportunity to tailor your experience to a particular novel, family member, or any other special focus – just let us know when you book.

Your private tour will take place while the Museum is closed to the public on a Monday or Tuesday.* It will include a 'behind the scenes' visit to our library, where research and conservation work is carried out.
