What's at The British Museum
The permanent collection is the heart of it, with rotating exhibitions that change a few times a year. An audio guide is worth the add-on — it turns a room into a story.
Who it's for
Best for people who like to take their time; less so for young kids without prep.
Practical
In season and at weekends, book ahead — the ticket queue for The British Museum can run half an hour or more, and an online booking gives a timed entry slot.
