Overview

Discover some of the highlights of the British Museum with a guide and get a flavor of one of the world’s oldest and finest museums. Because there is so much to see, you could spend a week at the British Museum and still not discover it all. Experience the best of the British Museum’s collections, starting with a view of the breathtaking ceiling. Admire the spectacular glass roof of the Great Court, a work of art. Then, see the world-famous “Rosetta Stone,” the key to deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphics. Admire the controversial Parthenon Sculptures, taken from the Parthenon in Athens by Lord Elgin, the former British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire. Go to the Ancient Egypt galleries to see the large collection of Egyptian mummies, and discover the Anglo-Saxon “Sutton Hoo” burial relics, as well as the “Winged Bulls” from Khorsabad.

Great tour! Guide was very knowledgeable, and fascinating to see and hear about everything in there. Can’t imagine going in without a guide-would be overwhelming!

Our guide, Serena, was fantastic! She answered the phone in the morning. She was waiting where she said she would be. She told us fascinating facts and was so great at explaining everything. We feel lucky to have had her as our guide. It was a great tour and the British Museum is definitely worth going to!

Visiting museums and learning about cultures and history is one of my favorite things to do. The British museum is a beautiful place. Our tour guide was fabulous. Having a tour guide makes a huge difference.

Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable but not a great guide. We literally spend 20 minutes in front of a a map of Africa talking about the history instead of showing us some of the more important works in the museum. We also spent 15 minutes outside the entrance as we watched 100s of people file in as he told us about what we were going to do once we got into the museum.

Our guide, Paul, was extremely knowledgeable, professional and friendly. My husband and I were the only ones on this tour so Paul was able to give us his full attention. He was able to answer all of our questions and show us the popular exhibitions along with his personal favorites. He was delightful!
