Overview

Get ready to zoom through time with a fun, friendly explorer guide in one of the most exciting museums in the world! Meet mighty heroes and everyday people from thousands of years ago and discover just how much (or how little!) their lives were like ours.

Marvel at pharaohs and fearsome warriors, gasp at the enormous jaw of a mammoth, and uncover magical objects once used to predict the weather or talk to spirits. Be dazzled by a golden ship that announces dinner and a mysterious surprise linked to Banksy.

From ancient mummies and curious jars to long-lost treasures and legendary finds, this adventure is packed with stories, surprises, and smiles - the most fun you can possibly have in a museum!

And unlike a group tour, this adventure is completely private - just your family and your guide, moving at your own pace, stopping wherever wonder strikes.

What to expect

  1. The British Museum
    2h
    Discover mummies, monsters, and mighty treasures on a fun-filled British Museum tour where history comes alive through stories, surprises, and hands-on curiosity for young explorers.

    Your expert guide brings the museum to life in ways that captivate children and adults alike. Come face to face with Egyptian mummies and dazzling golden sarcophagi. Crack the code of the Rosetta Stone - the ancient puzzle that unlocked the secrets of hieroglyphics. Meet the Lewis Chessmen, the very pieces that inspired Harry Potter. Say hello to Lindow Man, a real person preserved in a bog for 2,000 years - you can still see his face. Spot the Feejee Mermaid, once thought to be real but actually a brilliantly crafted fake. And look way, way up at Hoa Hakananai'a, the giant Easter Island statue that has stood watch for centuries.

    Two hours, eight million objects, and two million years of human history - the greatest time travel experience in London.
