Join your guide at the British Museum in London and explore its world-renowned collection in a small group of up to eight people. The museum, home to eight million artifacts spanning 6,000 years, offers a journey through the depths of human history.

Your guide begins with an introduction to the museum’s key pieces, including Samurai armor and Assyrian lion hunting reliefs from the 7th century BC. As you navigate through the galleries, you'll see carefully selected highlights like the Parthenon Marbles, the 12th-century Lewis Chessmen, and the Rosetta Stone—key to deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphs.

    Hit the highlights and Stan was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the information. I very much enjoyed the whole tour. He also tried to engage my 9 year old in the experience which I greatly appreciated.
