Tour Details

Despite its proximity to crowd-packed areas like Oxford Street, Soho and the West End, Bloomsbury retains a sense of calm with its characterful back streets, residential pockets and leafy squares. The neighborhood has a rich history and was once home to the Bloomsbury Set, an influential group of writers, philosophers and artists including Virginia Woolf and E. M. Forster. The area is home to some of London’s top museums and a number of lesser-known cultural attractions that deserve a visit.

The tour, Artscapes of Bloomsbury takes you through the pulsating art district for a journey through hundreds of years of art as well as contemporary art.
