Highlights

Choose from several guided options: a general convict tour for the full history, a Behind Bars walk that explores living conditions, a Torchlight Tour that uses atmosphere and storytelling, and themed true-crime tours.
Guides use original records and local stories, and tours include cell blocks, exercise yards and some underground sections.
Some tours use low light or narrow passages, which adds atmosphere and may not suit very young children.
