Move over, New York. Bye bye, Barcelona. For true art lovers, there’s little that rivals London. With world-class museums, innovative galleries, experimental exhibition spaces and a thriving street art scene, creativity can be found on every corner. In short, it’s the ideal place to study just about any aspect of art you can imagine – and on tour with etr, we’ll customize the itinerary to suit your curriculum.
Eager to see the best of Europe’s Old Masters? We’ll visit the incomparable National Gallery in Trafalgar Square, overflowing with oeuvres by Van Gogh, Renoir, Titian and more. Want to focus more on modernism? We’ll head across the Thames to the Tate Modern, an innovative museum in a former power station that offers hundreds of works from the 1900s onward.
The cutting-edge creativity.
The best of Britain is on display at the other (original) Tate, while Impressionist and post-Impressionist works shine at the Courtauld Gallery. The National Portrait gallery features faces from the Tudor era onwards, the Royal Academy of Arts offers unparalleled rotating exhibitions (as well as Queen Victoria’s paint box), and…the list goes on.
In countless galleries, studios, and exhibition spaces scattered across the city, the next generation is making its mark on London’s thriving art scene. There’s a rich culture of multimedia street art, too, thanks to the cutting-edge creativity of individuals like D*Face and galleries such as StolenSpace, where there are few rules and anything is possible.
New, old, masters, neophytes – London has it all. No wonder the art aficionados keep calling.

To do London right, you need etr to lead the way. We have the experience (our first London art group visited London in 1989), the knowledge (our first office was located on King Street, a five minute stroll from the oft visited Royal Academy) and the ability to design an itinerary to meet your specific learning objectives.
