Our Tours

Expert-led Tudor History Tours
in England and the UK.

At Simply Tudor Tours, we create immersive, expert-led Tudor history tours across England, Scotland, and beyond, designed for people who want to do more than just visit historic places. We believe that to truly understand the past, you need to experience it.

Our small-group Tudor tours follow in the footsteps of some of the most compelling figures of the Tudor age, from Anne Boleyn and Elizabeth I to Henry VII and Margaret Tudor. Along the way, we stay in historic locations, explore royal palaces, castles and cathedrals, and visit places often overlooked by the usual tourist trail.

Each journey is shaped around the history itself and brought to life by specialist historians, authors and expert guides. Wherever possible, we also arrange private access, behind-the-scenes visits and immersive experiences that bring our guests closer to the people, places and stories of sixteenth-century Britain.
