Participants will have the opportunity to learn about their daily activities, living conditions, drilling and marching practices and experiences going to war.

This tour will also explore the story of Collins Barracks becoming the Museum, and will introduce some of the most fascinating artefacts in the Museum's collection.

Tours will begin in Reception at Collins Barracks. Booking is not required. However, places are limited and will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Children must be supervised at all times while on the premises.
