Description

Knowing the History of Humanity from its origins millions of years ago is possible without leaving London. With our British Museum Tour you will be able to discover, together with an official guide and an expert on the subject, the main pieces of the most outstanding cultures that have populated our planet. We will begin our visit outside, at the entrance to the museum, where we will see its resemblance to some buildings from Classical Greece and we will move to the Hall of Enlightenment, the oldest in the museum, which houses a collection of more than 60,000 books by King George III. We will continue advancing to immerse ourselves in the culture of Ancient Egypt, where we will learn all the details of the Egyptian funerary rites, and our journey to the past will continue towards the Assyrian civilization. The Greek has been another of the cultures that have left a great historical legacy. Continuing our visit, we will be able to find an important part of the structure of the Parthenon of Athens. We will end our visit by discovering various pieces from Aztecs after having met Hoa Hakananai'a, a moai from Easter Island that is more than two meters high.
