Step by Step

Discover all that the British Museum in London has to offer with a private guided tour of around 2.5 hours. You will have an exclusive expert guide for those who join the tour at the time of booking.

Among the more than 8 million objects housed within its walls, these are some of the best works you can find in the British Museum:

  • Katebet Mummy: belonging to an old woman from 1300 BC.
  • Lewis Chessmen: a group of 82 medieval chess pieces from the 12th century.
  • Rosetta Stone: a stone that made it possible to decipher ancient Egyptian texts such as hieroglyphs.

On the guided tour you will discover a huge collection of 6000 years of human history including items from all over the world such as samurai armour, medals from different eras, remains of ancient civilisations and much more.

Your private guide will delve into the history of the museum's most important objects, primitive tribes and fallen empires. Thanks to this private experience you will be able to ask him all the questions you can think of throughout the tour.

Learn about the history of humanity in the third most visited museum in the world, after the Metropolitan Museum in New York and the Louvre in Paris. A visit that you can't miss on your itinerary.

    It is incredible the amount and variety of unique pieces and objects in this museum. It was one of the most beautiful and educational tours I did on my holiday, I leave with a smile from ear to ear from this tour.

    There is little to add, it is one of the most famous and recognised museums in the world for a reason. A spectacular place to visit and appreciate everything in detail, although perhaps the length of the tour is not very conducive to the latter.
