Private Street Art London Tour with Local Expert Guide

Look around the Whitechapel Gallery to see the works of modern and contemporary art and be amazed by the diversity of masterpieces. The gallery building was constructed in 1901 to house temporary exhibitions. In 2009 it added more space by merging with former library building. You may not only watch the contemporary artists works but also some retrospective exhibitions that meet the interests of the local art lovers. Near the gallery, you may get interested in the stories about Jack the Ripper.

The private tour will open doors to places that are off-limits to large tour groups. Petticoat Lane Market is one of these places. The market was founded about 400 years ago by the French Huguenots. Even though the Victorians changed the name to Middlesex Street it is still known under its previous name. On Sundays, the market grows bigger, and you’ll be able to find everything from leather goods to watches and toys. You’ll also get a perfect view of the neo-futuristic 30 St Mary Axe and other skyscrapers, and hear the stories about their construction, as well as about the structures that haven’t been built there.

Walk around the most important place for food, art, music, fashion, and different events in the East End. Being one of London’s major markets it has a great number of things to offer. If you’re fond of arts and crafts, all kinds of food, combined with the sounds of music this place is for you. Walk by the pubs that remember Tudor times, and learn about the disputed between residents and corporations on the territory redevelopment.

Wander through the Brick Lane and enjoy eye-opening street art, food markets, and cutting edge designers. This vibrant place will amaze you with its fast pace and modern activities on thin streets with such an abundance of events than any other part of town.

Get inspired by the mixture of cultures from French to Bangladeshi communities, which formed the area.

Visit Nomadic Community Garden, get to know new people, and find out about their lifestyle. This is a place where urban space shares a place with people who grow their products, create works of art, and who managed to build their nomadic community in the center of the metropolis from the ground up.
