Online bookings only
You must book your visit online in advance, even if you're a Member. Pre-booked tickets ensure that visits are spread out throughout the day, and that sites don’t exceed their capacity. There is no limit to the time you can spend on our sites.
- When you choose your ticket you will be taken to our online booking system.
- First pick your date and entry time using the calendar button.
- Then select the number of tickets you require and click 'add to basket'.
- Your ticket will be emailed to you once you have completed the booking process.
- Remember to bring this with you on the day of your visit - you can either show it on your phone or print out a copy.
If you want to visit both the Cutty Sark and the Royal Observatory, you can buy a Royal Museums Greenwich Day Pass and save up to 20% on the cost of your tickets.
If you are displaying coronavirus symptoms or have been told to self-isolate, please do not visit our sites. Email bookings@rmg.co.uk to postpone your visit until it is safe and possible to do so.
