History and Culture Tours
Welcome to the history and culture tours, attractions and days out.
Tate Modern Tours and Tickets
Perched on the banks of the River Thames, Tate Modern is the epicenter of London’s contemporary art scene. It’s a culture lover’s paradise and one of the largest modern art museums in the world, complete with cutting-edge works, thought-provoking installations, and dramatic think pieces.
Soho Tours and Tickets
This London neighborhood has it all: theaters, live music, art galleries, eclectic nightlife, shopping, historical sites, and a quirky food scene. Located in the West End District popular with actors, artists, musicians, and fashionistas, Soho is also the epicenter of London’s LGBTQ+ scene.
Westminster Bridge Tours and Tickets
The neo-Gothic Westminster Bridge connects Lambeth and Westminster. Though popular for its panoramic views, the Victorian bridge’s decorative details and cultural importance make it an attraction in its own right. The present-day structure opened on Queen Victoria’s birthday in 1862, though its history reaches back to the 17th century.
Marble Arch Tours and Tickets
Amid the blur of traffic of one of central London’s busiest intersections—the meeting point of Oxford Street, Park Lane, and Edgware Road—the grand Marble Arch is one of the city’s most striking landmarks, and it boasts an impressive royal history.
London National Gallery Tours and Tickets
Home to England’s greatest collection of paintings, the London National Gallery’s pantheon-style facade looms over London’s Trafalgar Square. With a storied history dating back to 1824, it’s no wonder this is one of the most-visited art museums in the world.
Green Park Tours and Tickets
The smallest of London’s network of eight Royal parks, Green Park is located in Westminster, between Hyde Park to the west and St. James Park to the east. The 40-acre (16-hectare) green space is dissected by the Mall on one side and Constitution Hill on the other, right next to Buckingham Palace. It’s a peaceful triangle, known for mature plane and lime trees as well as a number of memorials, statues, and fountains.
