Stop At: The British Museum, Great Russell Street, London WC1B 3DG England

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 including Samurai armor and rare Assyrian lion hunt reliefs. Our guides 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.

Andy was so knowledgeable. Just incredible. We had a family of three including a 4th grader. Everyone loved it. I can’t imagine doing the museum solo. I wouldn’t have gotten a sliver of the experience without the additional context and history Andy brought to the tour. He made it so much fun. Don’t hesitate. Highly worthwhile.

Sacha was an excellent guide and his background as a Historian made him perfectly suited for the job. He provided information and commentary that brought the exhibits to life; exactly what one needs! He also guided us to the biggest exhibits so that we made the most of our time and made the experience fun for my 2 teenagers by asking questions and engaging them throughout the tour.

Our family of four (“kids” ages 16 and 19) had a fantastic tour of the British Museum with Sebastian. He was knowledgeable and engaging. Our time together was informative and fun. We especially enjoyed how he was able to get us thinking about museums and the issues they face in today’s world. It sparked great family conversation. There’s so much to see and without a guide it would have been overwhelming. If you want to make the most of your time there, definitely book a tour with Sebastian!
