Masterpieces and Modern Amenities - Not only does it house incredible masterpieces, but the experience itself is top-notch. It has modern facilities, knowledgeable staff ready to answer questions, and a fantastic gift shop (we stocked up on art-inspired souvenirs!). The location in Trafalgar Square is incredibly convenient too. If you love art, the National Gallery is an absolute must-visit. The combination of beautiful works and excellent visitor amenities made it one of our favorite stops in London.

Take this tour - An excellent tour for someone short on time. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the museum and was able to show us many of the key pieces on exhibit. I Highly recommend this tour…or you could just be happy wandering the museum pretending to have some idea of the significance of what you’re looking at…

4 Passionate Art History buffs - Amazing guide who is as passionate as he is knowledgeable. His enthusiasm for the museum and art history is as exciting to observe as the paintings themselves. I really enjoyed the tour even though I am not a regular patron of museums. Hoping to return in the future! I def recommend!

!!Pesellino!!! - Pesellino is the free exhibition now, it is amazing!
But you must get free tickets online.
He is a master, and the exhibition is small, and bless the museum for gathering his paintings and letting us see this unknown master!

Did not enjoy the walk as it was too rushed. - The guide was exuberant and interesting however the whole experience felt very rushed. The guide explained the history behind the paintings but it all felt too rushed.
