What To Expect
Explore the British Museum’s most famous treasures with a licensed guide and immerse yourself in one of the world’s oldest and most valuable museums. The museum's vast collection is so rich in history that you could spend a week and still not see it all.
Begin your visit by marveling at the stunning ceiling of the Great Court, a true architectural masterpiece. Then, discover the famous Rosetta Stone, the key to unlocking the secrets of Egyptian hieroglyphics. Don't miss the controversial Parthenon sculptures, removed from the Parthenon in Athens by Lord Elgin.
Visit the Ancient Egyptian galleries to see incredible mummies, then uncover Anglo-Saxon burials from the Sutton Hoo site and the magnificent Winged Bulls from Khorsabad.
With your guide’s expertise, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of these treasures and the stories they tell about ancient civilizations.
