My company are researching various area in London, and one of them was Highgate Cemetery. Nicola (our guide) did a fantastic job of filling us in with the wonderful adventures of those who now rest here.
Would recommend anyone visiting if they want to learn about the stories for themselves.

What a gem in the middle of London. We spent three hours wandering around this beautiful and interesting place. As well as the big names such as Karl Marx and Douglas Adams there are a plethora of other fascinating individuals buried here from across the range of cultures and creeds. It feels wild, we saw foxes and woodpeckers, and has a very appealing over grown air to it that adds something. I found it truly fascinating and would certianly visit again.

I did a guided tour of the cemetery and it was an excellent experience. Our guide was great in telling the story of the cemetery, the famous people buried and much more. Highly recommended visit, I had a great day and plan to visit again.

It was a remarkable day - can't recommend both a guided tour than a good amount of time to ramble on your own with a map and guide book - pondering lives lived. Fascinating people, fascinating lives, and much to think about re yesterday, today and tomorrow! Give yourself the gift of this time. Well worth it! And much thanks to our guide Stephan who made the the tour especially interesting and really brought the stories "to life!"

On a chilly Sunday in January we met with a surprisingly large group at HC and were welcomed by an enthusiastic volunteer guide called Martin. The tour lasted for an hour and half and it felt like no time at all as Martin’s guided tour was both informative and entertaining, chasing all cold winds away! The tour introduces you to a range of inhabitants, often rich and famous, whose histories are either remarkable or mundane but all were communicated with an infectious enthusiasm by Martin with quips, gossip and hearsay that delights . Highgate Cemetery tours are well worth it - they offer a window into the Victorian era - its values, interests, landscaping and it’s architecture - fascinating. Martin suggested that we should feel ‘morally refreshed’ - we did!

I love walking around cemeteries and have wanted to visit Highgate Cemetery for some time.. I was not disappointed! It is beautiful here, steeped in gothic and Victorian history, and very overgrown as if nature is reclaiming the dead. It is not at all morbid but very tranquil and fascinating. Our guide, Emma, was very knowledgeable and delivered the information in a friendly manner, she clearly has a passion for the cemetery. Thanks Emma! I would love to come back one day soon.

Despite a rainy day we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The tour guide Stephen really made it the best experience of this unusual place. Interesting history rather than morbid. Possibly in our top 10 things in London.

Sorry no. It’s just small pathways but if you need help with mobility one of the volunteers might take you in their golf cart

Pues es mejor sacarla por la web para la visita guiada porque tiene cupo limitado.los guías son voluntarios y muy entregados.no suspenden si llueve, o sea que es conveniente mirar las previsiones e ir preparado para la lluvia

How long do you reckon you need comfortably to look around Highgate cemetery?

The tour of the west side itself (which you shouldn’t miss) will take about 1.5 hours. Then your own viewing of the east side, which is just as big, is of course up to you. I’d say at least hour, depending on how you usually contemplate yourself through cemeteries. And if you are tubing it, you’ll need to walk up a fairly hefty hill. It isn’t super far, but will take you 15-20 minutes to walk. And then a lovely 10 minute stroll through a park at the top just to get to the cemetery gates. Driving of course will be different. But in foot, if you through in a coffee or a beer into your post-itinerary it’ll take you even longer. First tour on Sat was 10 am if I remember correctly and I wasn’t back at the tube station till 1:30. All being said, if you have the time, absolutely do it. It is a fascinating look at Victorian stones, and our tour guide was SUPER informative. Hope that is helpful. Cheers.

I am trying to decide whether to book the 11am tour or the 1:45pm tour. How long did you spend there? The sun sets at 4:30pm when we will be going in January and I want to make sure we have enough time?

I would book the earlier tour - then you will have lots of time to explore the East Cemetery too!

Hi. I booked an evening guided tour for the West Cemetery, I know it takes about 70 minutes. Since I’d like to visit the East Cemetery as well first, could you please tell me how long it takes to have a walk around the East side?
I know it depends on you, but just to have an idea?
Thanks a lot!

You can easily cover the east side in 30-45 minutes, it is a lot smaller and more modern. There are some iconic graves of importance, but so much of an architectural significance. There is a very useful map at the gate showing the historical people buried there.

The cemetery is divided into East and West sections. The East section is open to the public, but also offers occasional guided tours. The West section is ONLY open via a guided tour conducted by an official Highgate volunteer. You can book these tours via the website or at the onsite ticket office. We took the West section guided tour and it's definitely worth the time and cost.

My Great Grandmother is buried in the East Cemetery, will I have to pay for 4 of us to pay our respect.

I believe so, though if you speak to someone at the gate, I would imagine they'd be accommodating. The price to ender the East side is around 4-8 pounds, from what I recall.

I will be going on the guided tour in the morning and having a look around the other cemetery in the afternoon. Is there somewhere handy to get a cup of tea and a sandwich?
Thanks!

Hello
Although there is often (usually weekends) a coffee cart outside the cemetery, we would recommend that you go up to Highgate Village, or down to the bottom of Swains Lane (about 10 minutes either way), where there are numerous and good options for eating and drinking.
