Can I give Daniel six stars?? He gave us a fabulous tour of the museum. He took account of things we were particularly interested in, and also navigated a big crowd to show us the standards (the Rosetta stone and such). By the time the tour was over we felt as if we’d made a friend.

What a phenomenal tour we had, thanks to Jamie!!! His knowledge of not just the artifacts but also the historical background behind them was impressive. The museum was quite busy when we were there (it was coronation week), but his ability to navigate efficiently around its huge environs, plus his sense of prioritization and timing re what we saw and when, turned out to be very useful. He was very personable and fun, making us feel like we were friends of his. When we come back to this wonderful city, we look forward to working with Jamie again!

The tour operator and the tour guide we’re very helpful in accommodating us on our mobility scooters and in getting us entered into the museum. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, informative, professional, and friendly. We highly recommend this tour in every respect !!! The British Museum is not to be missed on any visit to London!!
