Great time with our guide, Ivo. Very knowledgeable across a number of subjects, gave us a broad survey of various areas of the British Museum. Was a pleasure to talk with, answered the kids questions readily, even on things he wasn’t planning to guide us on. Also wasn’t rushing out at the end and took a couple extra minutes with us. Overall great experience.

Jake was a fantastic tour guide! Incredibly knowledgeable and readily able to answer any and all questions. We had actually been to the British Museum (solo) about six years ago and please know that a guided tour is the way to go! We saw and understood way more than before. The National Gallery part of the tour was superb as Jake had written his dissertation on Vasquez. Perfect experience!
