The National Gallery is pretty decent. Its free (thought they ask for a donation), as are the audiotours. I wouldn't say it is worth a whole lot of time. Maybe I'm spoiled from having been to some of the famous art museums in France and Italy, but there are a lot of other places in London that I would rather... more

For those who can see, this shall not be missed. Behind Trafalgar Square for those who love history, literature and fine art. Please, if you wish, see if there is a guide free. more

I am here all the time. It is one of my favorite places. There is no where like it in the world. more

As wonderful as The National Gallery is, I have to comment about the constant closure of some rooms ( in some cases several at the same time ), phenomenon that it has become a regular feature in my last few visits to the gallery.

The museum is free and all the rooms are vast, with comfy benches in... more

Because it is Great - and because it is FREE, I tend to visit the National Gallery a lot. Even half an hour or so here & there can be worthwhile, but that is not the point of this review. Some while ago, I was looking for things for kids to do, and came across the "Teach your Adults about... more

Fantastic! Spent the morning here by myself while I waited for Oliver in the afternoon. Morning well spent. This gallery is a must for all culture vultures out there!!! The gallery is laid out well, has some really well-known pieces and is really easy to get to! Best of all...it's free! (Although I always give donations!) The cafe served lovely... more

National Gallery is a must if you have even the slightest interest on painting and history of art. There are a lot of very well-known pieces here, and a lot of other not so known pieces, that are important and a joy to see non the less. It is a pleasant surprise to see that here, there is a lot... more
