PRIVATE TOUR – SOLD OUT
Wednesday 4th February 2026 at 10:15am (meet) – 10:30am (start)
Meeting Point: Use the Montague Place entrance to the British Museum.
Come and discover how travellers, explorers, traders, scientists, diplomats, and grand tourists amassed and collected artefacts, assembled knowledge, and displayed their treasures.
This amazing gallery – the first wing of the British Museum to be built – is the place for us to look back at the history of collecting and to scrutinise the present and the future of museums.
Advice to participants:
– Wear ultra-comfortable shoes.
– Check weather forecasts and make sure you have warm and waterproof clothes if necessary. Being cold on a walking tour can spoil the entire experience.
– Do not hesitate to bring a little snack with you (nuts or biscuits) and a flask of your favourite drink.
