Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: The British Museum, Great Russell Street, London WC1B 3DG England
Trade in paintings for mummies and historical artifacts on a tour of the British Museum. The enormous collection spans 6000 years of human history, featuring items from all over the world including Samurai armor and rare Assyrian lion hunt reliefs. Our guides will take a serious but enjoyable approach towards the museum’s galleries, discussing primitive tribes and fallen empires through a carefully chosen selection of items. You’ll learn about the Mummy of Katebet, the Lewis Chessmen, and the Rosetta Stone – the actual rock, not the language learning program. Walk away with an understanding of what we humans have achieved during our short history and hopefully you’ll be proud to call yourself a part of this incredible species.

I arranged this tour for a group attending meetings in London. They loved it! One of the attendees said it was a "storming success". I couldn't have hoped for more.

The tour is advertised as having plans in place to see Changing of the Guard but the tour guide was unaware of planned closures for the marathon and hadn’t planned to be able to see it. We missed the primary focus of the tour.
