Bus/Coach Tour Guide

Let a local, informed Morpeth Museum guide take you on a journey from 19th century Morpeth into the present day. The guide will jump on your coach and explore the historic main street, churches, buildings, businesses, and so much more. The Morpeth Tour will start and finish at the old Morpeth Courthouse (now Morpeth Museum) with entry to the Museum also included. The tour lasts up to an hour.

An alternative longer tour is also available for the Maitland district where you will pick up the guide for your coach at the Maitland Visitors Information Centre.

A combination of Morpeth plus Maitland is also available and all tour lengths can be tailored to your group's needs and schedule.
