Natalie says… I’ve never viewed art in this way before, it was incredible! Be prepared to lose time – I spent nearly 2 hours at Frameless in what felt like the blink of an eye! “
Natalie says… The Royal Opera House tour guide keeps your experience at the forefront of their mind, deviating from the planned tour so you don’t miss a glimpse of a rehearsal if it’s nearby. It was spectacular and I’d bet that no two tours are the same! “
