Next, dive into contemporary art at Tate Modern. The building itself is an industrial marvel, and the art inside is just as captivating. Your host will make sure you catch all the highlights.
As you pass by Shakespeare's Globe, you'll get a taste of Elizabethan London. Imagine the Bard's plays coming to life right where you stand.
