"I enjoyed a lovely tour of Southwark with Gavin! He was knowledgeable, engaging, friendly, and fun! We talked about theatre, history, the arts, and current events. I highly recommend him and will call him in the future for more tours!"
TripAdvisor: Review of Highlights of London
Tate Modern
Tate Modern, the powerhouse of international modern art and one of the most visited art spaces in the world. Housed in a converted power station designed by the architect behind the red telephone box! The building is on the bank of the river Thames, boasting spectacular views of St Paul’s Cathedral and the skyscrapers of the City of London.
​
The power plant may have closed but prepare for some electrifying art that will shine a light on some of the world’s most experimental pieces.
​
Some may shock, some may inspire, but all will leave a strong and unforgettable impression.
