WE HAVE TWO EXCITING NEW TOURS COMING UP IN 2026

The Victoria and Albert Museum is a must for visits to London, but this is a whole new take, so even if you have been to the V&A before, be prepared to be in awe.  The new Storehouse showcases over 250,000 items all of which are available to examine and some of which you will be allowed to touch. 

Housed in the deconsecrated Church of St. Mary-at-Lambreth, the Garden  Museum is a unique space with exhibits of tools, ephemera, paintings, architecture, and botanical art.  The exhibits are created with an emphasis on how and why people garden.

After a tour of the Victorian Courtroom and underground cells at the National Justice Museum in Nottingham, watch a live re-enactment of a Victorian trial. 

The just-opened Shoemaker's Museum in Somerset celebrates Clark shoes as a major industry in this area. Of note is the role that these shoes made  in the abolition and suffrage movements.  Fashion, art, industry, and fun combine to make this a one-of-a-kind experience.

In addition to the amazing architecture that features an atrium and roof terrace, the Liverpool Central Library is the home of 15,000 rare books, a vast array of prints and engravings that concentrate on fine printing and the book as an art form.  While we are in Liverpool we will take in The Beatles Story  to see memorabilia including handwritten lyrics from the Fab Four.

The debate about the coal mining industry in Great Britain remains strong  today.  We will visit a closed coal mine to learn about its history, explore working conditions, and the impact on the surrounding community after it closed.

This museum is full of optical illusions and boasts that "nothing makes sense here."  It was designed to entertain and challenge our perceptions of reality.

We will immerse ourselves in the beautiful story-telling and cutting-edge interactives about King Richard III's life, death, and the science behind his re-discovery under a car park.

While we are in the neighborhood of King Richard III, we will visit a new open-air archaeology museum and Roman Villa where we can walk through actual Roman-built remains. We will visit the Jewry Wall which is one of the largest remaining Roman masonry structures in Britain
