Newmarket guided tours

Guided tours of The National Stud are delivered by our partners at Discover Newmarket and are a fantastic way of learning more about what goes on behind the scenes of a Thoroughbred stud farm.

Depending on the season visitors can expect to see mares with their young foals, yearlings and stallions all in the truly beautiful grounds of the National Stud. On your guided tour you will also hear about the history of the stud, and an overview of the work that goes into producing the future champions of the turf.
