Overview
The Victoria and Albert (V&A) is considered by many to be the world’s greatest museum of Art and Design. Your tour guide will show you many of the Museum's highlights dating from ancient times to the present day such as the Raphael Cartoons, Tippoo’s Tiger, Leonardo Da Vinci’s Notebooks, Michelangelo’s wax model, the oldest dated and most important carpet in the World, the Ardabil, and the intricate timber facade of a London home that survived the Great Fire of London in 1666. The Museum’s Cast Courts house a staggering display of life-size plaster casts made in the 19th Century of famous European statues and monuments; the awe-inspiring cast of Trajan’s Column in Rome is made up of sections reaching from the floor to the ceiling.
It’s a must-see place in London and V&A tells you everything about the world of art and design. Explore this treasure of culture with Tourope UK’s art professional APTG blue badge guides today.

V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum Victoria and Albert. Our queen and her wise consort, they were true lovers, a great couple and great rulers of all times. They were cousins and were like two peas in a pod. Therefore whenever you hear Victoria, Albert is there, whenever you hear the name Albert, Victoria is there. Therefore the Victoria & Albert Museum carries their soul, it’s spectacular, ostentatious, marvellous. V&A is the largest art and design museum in the world and holds over 2,3 million permanent items representing over 5 000 years of human innovation. V&A holds a great number of national collections in the UK and includes some of the best tools for the study of architecture, furniture, design, textiles, photography, sculpture, painting, gems, glass, ceramics, book arts, theatre and performance. This V&A past is a fascinating tale. It all started with a Manufacturing Museum in 1852 and it goes up to its foundation in 1899 by Queen Victoria. Today V&A have state-of-the-art galleries has continuously evolved in its collections and public interpretation of art and design. The collections in the museum span over five thousand years of artistic humanity in nearly every medium in one of Britain's finest Victorian and contemporary buildings in London. V&A’s mission is to be recognised as the world's leading museum of art, design and performance, and to enrich people's lives by promoting research, knowledge and enjoyment of the designed world to the widest possible audience and we must admit, they are very successful on that. Choices are endless in V&A. It's a different world.
