Forget about big groups of strangers or running after a guide with a tight schedule leading a big group. Treat your family, your friends, your partner or just yourself with this PRIVATE tour. No strangers will be part of the group, only you and whoever is travelling with you. In two hours you will visit the most important artifacts and lesser know objects. In this private tour you will be able to learn about many different civilizations in the humanity's history at your own pace, without having to follow a large group. The guide will be friendly, professional and will customize the tour according to the group needs, for example in case of couples or families with kids adapting the approach. The British Museum is huge but in 2 hours you will have an overview of the most significant objects like, but not limited to, the Rosetta Stone, Ramses II, Double headed serpent, Parthenon Marbles, the Moai from Easter Island, Lewis Chessmen, the Waddesdon Bequest and the Assyrian Lamassu.

Damiano from DS Tours is knowledgeable and friendly. He helpfully texted us clear directions of when and exactly where to meet him inside the busy entrance. For 2 hours he guided us to select museum treasures with insight and wit, bringing history alive using context and historical anecdotes. We would not have known to see many of these objects without his guidance.

I have had many tour guides in the past, but Damiano is the best. He is patient, speaks clearly, very knowledgeable and makes us understand the purpose and reasoning behind each artifact. We had an amazing time, and I would recommend Damiano for the British Museum tour.

Stefania was very knowledgeable and accommodating. She modified the tour to our interests and was able to give background information for each of those exhibits.
