Roberta did a great job showing the treasures of the British Museum and keeping kids and adults engaged throughout the tour. My son learned a lot and I don't think we would have had a similar experience just on our own.
Our tour guide was very nice, she kept the group of kids and parents entertained and interested at the museum. She even had a detail to give the kids a little surprise at the end of tour; which they loved!
A wonderful tour with an enthusiastic and very friendly guide Danny. The tour really brought to life the history of civilization over many centuries. We got much more from the visit with a tour guide we could have wandered around aimlessly for hours without Danny and understood even less.
Sarah was a wonderful tour guide for our 11 year old son! She was very knowledgeable and he couldn't stump her with any hard questions! She also has a lovely disposition!
