A Bletchley Park private tour from London is the perfect way to discover the top-secret home of the WWII codebreakers. Visit Bletchley Park on a 6-hour private tour from London that includes a professional guide and luxury transportation. Guiding is not permitted inside Bletchley Park, so your driver/guide will explain the history of Bletchley en route and will be on hand throughout your visit. Visitors normally spend around 2 hours at Bletchley, followed by lunch at the cafe. Lunch is not included. We then highly recommend including a visit to the Royal Airforce Museum to turn this into a full day trip dedicated to the innovation of WWII.
Bletchley Park Private Tour
Bletchley Park was the home of the World War Two codebreakers, producing intelligence that had a profound impact on the outcome of the war. The codes of many countries were broken at this top-secret site, including messages from the German Enigma Machine. Wander through fascinating exhibitions, galleries and learn about the people who worked here, including Alan Turing. Highlights of a private tour of Bletchley Park include seeing the huts where the codebreakers worked on deciphering information, the Bombe machines that helped crack the Enigma codes, and The Mansion, which houses temporary and permanent exhibitions.
Royal Air Force Museum London
We can also combine a visit to Bletchley Park with a fully guided visit to the Royal Air Force Museum London, located in the outer suburbs of North London.
Visiting the RAF Museum offers a fascinating journey through the history of British aviation and the Royal Air Force. This vast museum has over 100 aircraft on display, plus extensive exhibitions related to flight. This includes iconic aircraft such as the Spitfire, Hurricane, and Lancaster Bomber, which played key roles in World War II and the Battle of Britain.

About Bletchley Park
Codebreaking at Bletchley Park first began in September 1938 when a small group of people, including members of MI6 and the Government Code and Cypher School (GC & CS) moved into the mansion. Over the course of the war its importance grew, and numerous huts were built. By 1944, around ten thousand people were working at Bletchley and its associated outstations.
Codebreaking Huts 3 and 6 have been carefully restored to resemble how the site looked during World War II, and include interactive exhibits, projected images and authentic set dressings. It was in these huts that Enigma messages were decrypted, translated and analyzed for vital intelligence.
Alan Turing, one of the most innovative thinkers of the 20th Century, oversaw and inspired the effort to decrypt cyphers generated by Nazi Germany’s Enigma machine at Bletchley. Turing’s story inspired the 2014 movie The Imitation Game.
The work at Bletchley also had a profound impact on computing, with the development of the world’s first electronic computer, the Colussus.
