Win one of 25 places on private CultureLine museum tours
CultureLine is a collection of ten great cultural attractions – established places like the Geffrye and Horniman museums and Whitechapel Gallery, ones that should be better known, like the Brunel Museum and Women’s Library and the local museums of Hackney, Croydon and Crystal Palace linked by the newly opened London Overground East London.
We have five places for two people on each one of the following tours exclusive to Time Out. Winners will win a place on one tour only.
