Overview

Start your journey with a guided walk through Bloomsbury and hear more about this historic district. Take a snap of the Kimpton Fitzroy Hotel and pass by the Senate House Library – which Harry Potter film fans will recognise as the Ministry of Magic.

Next, you'll enter the British Museum and explore the world-class exhibits with an audio guide from the convenience of your phone, featuring over 50 points of interest.

Admire the extensive artifact collection of human history and culture, with artworks from Rembrandt, Holbein, da Vinci and more. See gleaming Roman artefacts, the Rosetta Stone, the Lion of Knidos and astonishing Buddhist statues.

Go at your own pace as you explore the Enlightenment Room, take a snap of the Parthenon and Discobolus sculptures, and step in to the world of ancient Egypt and the pharaohs…

Frequently Ask Questions

What is a self-guided tour?

A self-guided tour is a type of tour where visitors explore a destination on their own using an audio guide or a map. Unlike a guided tour, visitors are not led by a tour guide and are free to choose their own pace and explore the sights that interest them the most. Self-guided tours offer more flexibility and freedom to visitors. They are a popular option for those who prefer to explore a destination independently.
