5.00The vast collection at the Victoria & Albert museum can only be visited in a couple of hours with a focused guided tour. Richard, our guide, really helped to sum it up in a thoughtful way by exploring the concept of beauty through different time periods and traditions. Very enjoyable!
Top-notch tour of the V & A

5.00Richard was a top-notch tour guide. He made some really interesting connections from Greek art to modern art that I will remember for a long time. He is a wonderful resource to explore the Victoria and Albert Museum.
