Tate Modern Tour

Our tour of the Tate Modern was excellent. Becky L made the entire experience worth every penny. She was personable and engaging....asking us our opinions to then discuss. This made us a part of the tour rather than just listening to an art expert opine about the art. Highly recommend Babylon tours and Becky L if you are looking to learn about the art in this wonderful museum.

Brilliant Tour!

Sasha was awesome. He selected a wide variety of various art forms for us to view and gave us great insight. He really made us think.

Modern art for a novice

Our guide was very knowledgeable! It made a big difference in educating me about modern art .Picked out some of the best pieces of the collections and gave advice for what to see on our own . Very interesting and enjoyable.

Best docent ever!

Becky was amazing! Having a tour with an art history buff was great. She made it very interactive for us and did a nice job of providing context for the art we were viewing without interpreting it for us. Would highly recommend!

Becky was an amazing tour...

Becky was an amazing tour guide. We had limited knowledge and appreciation of modern art, and she really helped us see things in a new light. Totally absolutely recommend.

I get it now

Charlie_W, Mar 2023
I learned about Modern Art. It is much more relatable than I thought. I also learned about me. It really sparked interesting conversations in the group and with my son.

Top Erlebnis!
