Described as 'the World's Museum', there simply is no other collection on earth as spectacular as that within the walls of the British Museum. With a dazzling swathe of artifacts from throughout the world and its history, your private expert guide will condense the very best it has to offer. Marvel at Ancient Egyptian statues and carvings, as you hear about the geniuses who cracked the code of hieroglyphics, using the famous Rosetta Stone. Then, be blown away by the craftsmanship and detail that the Parthenon Marbles boast, as you discover the contentious history of these masterpieces. Alongside your private expert guide, you'll also see mummies, Viking treasures, and even the chess set that inspired a magical version of the game in Harry Potter. This highlights tour will show you the best of the British Museum in an hour. If you'd prefer a more in-depth experience, with more of the hidden gems and secrets that the collection has to offer, check out our 3-hour version of this tour.

Jon was an amazing tour guide and he fully understood our preference for a "highlights" tour of this massive museum. He knows the museum layout very well, and we were able to see many remarkable exhibits during our tour. He asked, in advance, what we wanted to focus on, and he took it from there. We very much enjoyed his narration and his extensive knowledge of the museum's holdings and the history of the pieces we viewed. What a pleasure to have such an informed and expert guide for our visit! We recommend asking for Jon - he is a joy to spend time with.

Larry guided us through the museum to the most unique and popular exhibits. Seeing mummies, the Holy Thorn reliquary, and the bog man! We saw more in the 1-1/2 hour tour than we would have done on our own in a whole day!

Our guide was able to explain the antiquities in a way that helped us tie them to modern events. She was also very personable and down-to-earth. She made us want to learn more.
