The British Museum tour with kids is a half-day private tour with our expert guides viewing highlights and explaining about the most important and largest collection of world art and artifacts dedicated to human history and cultures.

Beginning in 1753 when Sir Hans Sloane bequeathed his personal collection of books, manuscripts, art, and other curiosities to King George II, the British Museum grew extensively over the next two and half centuries until it eventually was divided into what is now the many divisions of the museum's branches.

Just a few of the most famous pieces of the collections include the Rosetta Stone used to decipher Egyptian hieroglyphics, the Discus Thrower - a Roman copy of a bronze original from Hadrian’s Villa in Tivoli just outside of London, and the colossal statue of Ramesses II who was considered the greatest and most powerful pharaoh of the Egyptian Empire.

There’s no better way for you and your family to learn about the history of mankind than to see it firsthand with a fun and informative guide who is passionate about history and is able to present it to you in person instead of reading about it in a book or sitting in a classroom viewing slides on a projector screen a thousand miles away.

Contact us for availability and rates. We require a minimum of 24 hours advance notice to reserve a tour. Guides are limited, so plan your tour early for the best possible schedule during your trip to London.
