View More

Your Air Raid Experience will take place in the 85-year-old Deep Tunnel Shelters, with our experienced hosts who will take you on a journey through the air raid shelters highlighting the significant role the shelters played in protecting the inhabitants of Ramsgate during the Second World War. This is an immersive experience, with living history enactors encountering what the residents of Ramsgate would have experienced during those air raids. 


  • PHYSICAL FITNESS AND MOBILITY IS ESSENTIAL
  • Due to the uneven and occasionally rough nature of the tunnel floor, sensible shoes should be worn for the air raid experience with warm clothing strongly encouraged as the temperature remains at a constant 11ºc.
  • You will be required to climb multiple sets of stairs, ascending and descend a 2.5 metre secure steel ladder during the experience. 
  • The tour is only suitable for those aged 7 and above. 
  • Under 16's must be accompanied by an adult.
  • Make sure to dress for the prevailing weather conditions, the tour will continue if it is raining, and make sure to bring warm clothing for inside the Tunnels - it is a constant temperature of 11 c.
  • A safety briefing will be given at the start of your experience and you will be issued with a hi-visibility vest.
  • There are flickering lights and loud sounds throughout the Air Raid Experience
