Joined 2023
This tour takes you to the late 19th century time capsule. On entering its doors, you will find everything as it was arranged to the taste of its owners in the 1890s-early 1900s. You will see a magnificent collection of Dutch and Flemish masters (including the works by Rembrandt, Van Dyck, Rubens, Teniers, Hals) and of the French Classicist and Rococo painters (including the famous "Swing" by Fragonard, works by Watteau and Boucher). The tour lasts three - three and a half hours.

About Tour Guide Irene K.
Hello, I started working as a guide fifteen years ago, while studying at the University of Oxford. I collaborated with Oxbridge tours travel company where I acted as a tour guide for four years until I moved to London. I hold an M.A in art history and I taught art history at Sotheby's Institute of Art and the University of Glasgow. My tours are intended for history and art lovers. I take my guests around art galleries and British country houses. However, I will also be delighted to take you on a walking tour around London or Oxford, and show you some hidden gems most visitors do not know of or have no access to. I will customise your tour to make it a unique and memorable experience.
I normally offer tours in English.
