The British Museum
We start with the Assyrian, Egyptian and Greek galleries on the ground floor. We'll see 40-ton Assyrian lamassu beasts, statues of famous pharaohs and the Parthenon temple sculptures of Athens. We elbow our way to the front of the famous Rosetta stone and talk about its importance to history. After a break, we go upstairs to see the Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Babylonian, Persian, Greek and Roman galleries as time allows and your preference dictates. We'll look at Roman emperors, Persian tableware and drinkware that Esther and Nehemiah would have been familiar with, Egyptian mummies and a game that Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph would have played. We'll examine some weights that Daniel may have had in mind when he interpreted the handwriting on the wall for King Belshazzar. Some of the Biblical people we'll discuss: Egypt: Joseph, Moses, Abraham; Assyria: Jonah, Ahab, Hezekiah; Babylon: Daniel; Persia: Queen Esther, Nehemiah; Rome: Jesus; Greek: Paul

Wonderful tour - the Old Testament brought to life!

5.00David was a WONDERFUL guide for our tour and exploration of the British Museum's amazing collection of Bible-relative artifacts. The brief preface to our tour (during which he assisted us with loading a great Bible app for our use) helped to set the background historically for the Old Testament timeline he would be illuminating. Throughout our tour, David kept us engaged as he led us through Bible history utilizing the look-up of Bible passages (via the app) as he led us to the pertinent artifacts. The Israelites' history of triumphs and tragedies endured during interactions with the Assyrians, Babylonians and Persians as recorded throughout the Old Testament were brought alive as we viewed the artifacts of those kings and civilizations in the museum. David's clear and concise narrative (and occasional query to us) made the time with him fly by. David's intimate knowledge not only of the museum's layout but each of the period displays was apparent to us as he expertly guided us from exhibit to exhibit. He also emailed us follow-up information to provide additional clarification to several topics we had discussed (ex: a video link showing the use of a Persian king's Rhyton in pouring wine). We HIGHLY recommend David and this tour!

5.00David’s Explore Biblical Artifacts tour at the British Museum was a true highlight of our visit to London. From start to finish, David was engaging, joyful, and incredibly knowledgeable. He led us through the busy museum with energy and clarity, making sure we didn’t miss a single important detail—even adjusting the route on the fly when certain galleries were scheduled to close early. His flexibility and professionalism were impressive. What really set this tour apart was David’s deep passion—not just for the artifacts themselves, but for the Biblical texts they relate to. His insights connected the ancient world to the living Word in ways that were moving and intellectually rich. Each stop on the tour felt like opening a new window into history and Scripture at the same time. We came away not only better informed, but deeply inspired. This tour has genuinely encouraged us to go deeper in our own study of the Bible, and has grounded our faith in a new, tangible way. Highly recommended for anyone interested in Biblical history, archaeology, or simply looking to see the British Museum through a more meaningful lens.
Excellent Tour of British Museum - Highly Recommend!

5.00Excellent tour of British Museum with fantastic tour guide - funny, knowledgeable, and experienced. Truly the best way to experience this wonderful museum. The Bible comes alive through the artifacts and Biblical stories and references are verified by historical timelines and events. How encouraging for Bible believers to have their faith strengthened in this way. If you are a skeptic or a non-believer - take this tour and be challenged to see the world through a Biblical lens. You won’t regret it! Highly recommend!!
