London Film Museum Tours and Activities
The London Film Museum, tucked away in Covent Garden, focuses on the British film industry with a permanent collection of original props, costumes, and sets of all kinds. Past exhibitions have focused on Charlie Chaplin, and the long-running Bond in Motion car exhibition is now permanent.
The Basics
Established in 2008, the London Film Museum Covent Garden hosts special exhibitions in addition to showcasing its permanent collection, which includes cinema artifacts, photography, films, and multimedia tools.

How to Get There
London Film Museum is a 2-minute walk from Covent Garden underground station. The RV1 bus route stops on Russell Street, a minute’s walk away, and Charing Cross train station is a 5-minute walk.
When to Get There
The museum is open daily. Tickets are valid for either morning or afternoon, so decide ahead of time which you prefer. To avoid the biggest crowds, avoid local school holidays—usually summer, mid-October, around Christmas and New Year’s, and mid-February.
Bond in Motion
Bond in Motion, the museum’s permanent exhibition, features an extensive collection of original vehicles and props used in James Bond movies. The more than 100 original items on display include concept drawings, storyboards, scripts, model miniatures, and full-size cars, boats, and motorbikes. Highlights include the Aston Martin DB10 from Spectre, the “Wet Nellie” Lotus Esprit S1 from The Spy Who Loved Me, and the Rolls-Royce Phantom III from Goldfinger.
Address: 45 Wellington Street, Covent Garden, London, England
