Event Information
‘Hands On History’ sessions are just that – chances to discover amazing history in a fun, interactive way! You’ll discover stories, investigate artefacts and find out amazing facts. You pay for the young people and join them for the ride! Adults do not have to pay for this activity.
Join us for a fun-filled history session exploring the wonderful world of the Ancient Egyptians! The session will finish by mummifying your very own orange using ancient techniques! This session is designed for children aged seven and older.
Allergies
This activity will include mummifying oranges, which is very fun, but some people can be allergic to some of the ingredients we use, including oranges, salt, cinnamon and cloves. Please make us aware if you have any concerns.
Cancellations
In the unlikely event that we cancel a session, we will offer a full refund. Unfortunately tickets are otherwise non-refundable. Please contact us if you wish to transfer your ticket to a friend if you cannot attend for any reason.

If you have already purchased these tickets then please continue, otherwise add the required tickets and try again.
