Join one of our free Daily Guided Tours and take a closer look at Tate's collection. Tours last approximately 45 minutes, each focusing on highlights from different areas of our collection displays as chosen by a Tate Guide.

No booking required. Guided Tours are designed for individuals and small groups to join. If you are a group of over 10 you need to book a tour separately and register your visit.
