What to expect
Trade in paintings for mummies and historical artifacts on a tour of the British Museum. The enormous collection spans 6000 years of human history, featuring items from all over the world like Samurai armor and rare Assyrian lion hunt reliefs. Your guide will take a serious but enjoyable approach towards the museum’s galleries, discussing primitive tribes and fallen empires through a carefully chosen selection of items.
You’ll learn about the Mummy of Katebet, the Lewis Chessmen, and the Rosetta Stone – the actual rock, not the language learning program. Walk away with an understanding of what we humans have achieved during our short history and hopefully you’ll be proud to call yourself a part of this incredible species.

My daughter and I enjoyed this tour. It is easy to find the meeting location and our guide Becky is very professional, knowledgeable, patient, and fun. It also helped my daughter review/connect what she learned from the world history class.

Our tour with Becky at the British Museum was truly enjoyable. Booking a tour like this with an expert guide is essential when you are trying to make the most of a brief visit. As someone who had visited the museum before, I found the entire experience great as well as my teen son was fully engaged the entire time and even said, 'I wish we had more time.' That says a lot!

On Jan 3rd, our guide - Becky - was able in the space of two and a half hours to do the almost impossible: give a meaningful and interesting introduction to this vast museum. Of course it is impossible to cover everything in a short visit, but after the tour I felt as if I knew the museum a lot better for a future visit on my own. As a history graduate, Becky was very knowledgeable, but just as importantly she had the ability to share information in a thought-provoking way that I could understand. Thanks Becky!We enjoyed our guide Jake very much. He toured us through the vast collections, showcasing highlights along the way. Jake was great!
