Guided Tours

Take a guided tour of the Fort site with one of our volunteers who bring the story of Arbeia to life with their in-depth knowledge of Roman history.
Through the course of its history, Arbeia has taken on several guises: from the Roman Emperor's HQ for the Scottish invasion to a busy cosmopolitan port. It has hosted dramatic tales of murder and fire, and holds the key to ancient love stories. A huge supply base for the Roman army, it housed 600 Roman troops and is said to be the birth place of the Northumbrian King Oswin.
Today, Arbeia is home to some of the finest full-scale Roman reconstructions and archaeological finds in the UK.
Not suitable for children aged 5 or younger.
Tickets £4 | Free tickets for carers | Donations welcome
