Description:
Experience a journey through centuries of human history with a guided tour of the British Museum. Founded in 1753, its permanent collection is among the largest in existence. Your planned route around the museum shows you the best of its treasures with the insights of your passionate guide.
Begin your tour admiring the breathtaking ceiling of the museum. With a 2-acre (0.8-ha) space enclosed by a spectacular glass roof, the Great Court is a work of art in its own right.
Wander around 70 galleries and visit the extensive collection of antiquities, including the Parthenon Frieze, the marble sculpture created to adorn the upper part of the Parthenon, and the world-renowned Rosetta Stone, used as the way to decipher complex Egyptian hieroglyphics.
Death and afterlife rituals played an important role in the Ancient Egyptian society. See ancient mummies and learn about the mummification process and how the dead bodies were preserved for thousands of years.
