Highlights of the British Museum and National Gallery - Private Tour
What your day looks like
An amazing London 'Art & Culture' Experience. Private guided, extended six-hour tour, visiting two world-famous attractions. This is a walking and wandering tour all in central London. As a born and bred London tour guide, I enjoy providing commentary in our great attractions, anecdotes about all our top tour stops, and showing off London’s outstanding landmarks. I’ll explain as we explore these world-famous London attractions.
The experience, in brief
- Private extended guided tour for small groups and families
- Highlights of the British Museum
- Highlights of the National Gallery
The journey, in full
British Museum: the world’s greatest collection of human history, culture and art. Egyptian mummies, Rosetta Stone, Assyrian Lamassu, Lion Hunt Relief, Parthenon Marbles, an Anglo-Saxon Ship Burial, and more. I select the best for you to see from almost a million exhibits! Free entry. National Gallery: the most comprehensive collection of Western art displayed in one gallery. Botticelli, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael, Caravaggio, Vermeer, Rembrandt, Turner, Cezanne, Monet, van Gogh, and more. I select the best for you to see from over two thousand paintings! Free entry. Lunch is usually an easy meal in one of the attraction cafe’s, all of which are very good. We’re always close to coffee shops and places for bathroom breaks. TRANSPORT: Between the British Museum and National Gallery travel is on foot (25 mins +/- through historic Covent Garden) or taxi, we decide as we tour. Taxi is quicker – not included in price. Note: a lot of tour companies and guides say they can do this amazing combined attractions tour - including travel between - in five hours. That's not enough and too rushed. My six hour tour is just right.
