The Royal Geographical society is mostly closed to the public but hosts open exhibitions in a pavillion at the top of Exhibition Road and also has a programme of public lectures.

The exhibition space is pretty small, just a single room, but is a nice break from the melee of South Kensington. I wasn’t impressed by the morally questionable, Saudi Arabia affiliated exhibition I saw but maybe you’ll be luckier.
