Perfect tour in a short amount of time... - We were looking for a tour where we could show the kids the highlights of the British Museum instead of wandering around all day and reading some information here and there. This was the perfect tour for us! Our tour guide, Jamie, was very patient with us (sorry we were running late!) and he was an excellent story teller. He was extremely knowledgable in ancient civilizations and British history and he answered all of our questions as he took us around to the major highlights of the Museum. We learned so much more through Jamie's tour than just walking around each room hoping to see a few artifacts amongst a sea of people. Overall, this tour was well worth it, especially if you can't spend the whole day at the museum. Thank you Jamie for being an amazing tour guide!

Fantastic Tour - Daniel was fantastic! He understood what we were interested in and really knew his stuff. I’m partly disabled so didn’t think I could do everything but he got me a wheelchair and even pushed it! Both my sister and I were very impressed with the Museum and the tour! Well worth the time.

Five stars ain’t enough!! - Can I give Daniel six stars?? He gave us a fabulous tour of the museum. He took account of things we were particularly interested in, and also navigated a big crowd to show us the standards (the Rosetta stone and such). By the time the tour was over we felt as if we’d made a friend.

Thank you, Jamie!!! - What a phenomenal tour we had, thanks to Jamie!!! His knowledge of not just the artifacts but also the historical background behind them was impressive. The museum was quite busy when we were there (it was coronation week), but his ability to navigate efficiently around its huge environs, plus his sense of prioritization and timing re what we saw and when, turned out to be very useful. He was very personable and fun, making us feel like we were friends of his. When we come back to this wonderful city, we look forward to working with Jamie again!
