This was our first trip to the Natural Science museum, and apparently this is the busiest time of the year. This made our decision to engage a “skip the line experience” even more important. Otherwise I could see our family of 6, including a curious 5 year old, getting scattered among the thousands of our fellow patrons. Our meet up was complicated by our lack of familiarity with the area as well as the throngs of visitors even outside the facility. Stephania was patient with, and expert at, shepherding us through the masses of people, keeping us together, and finding a corner at each stop to gather us so we could hear her commentary. She made a special effort to have my grand daughter experience all the available hands-on and interactive areas during our tour. The dinosaurs were everyone’s favorites and we will definitely visit them again when we return to London.

We were in terrific hands with Damiano!! From the beginning he gave us excellent communication about our upcoming tour. During the tour, we were amazed with his mastery of detail about natural history, and he fully entertained and educated all of us throughout. Highly recommend!
First, I’d never return to that museum on a weekend. Capacity should be capped at about 75% of what was there. The guide was nice, but the tour content was remedial. People nowadays get that birds are dinosaurs, let’s move on.
Our guide, Damiano, was superb. He was friendly and very knowledgeable. It was a wonderful experience and well worth the money. Thank you.
A great tour of the London Natural History Museum. Damiano was very knowledgeable and good fun. Really enjoyed it.
Guide was friendly and informative The museum was extremely warm!! Our guide kept us moving and was considerate
Damiano made this a very fun experience for not only my teenage daughter, but also for us! He tailored the tour a bit more to us with medical trivia since we work in medicine, and both my husband and I were pleasantly surprised to be leaving learning new facts about pelvic bones and how they are shaped in the different groups of dinosaurs. He didn't just teach - he would quiz along the way and keep us engaged and helped with retention of information! Really enjoyed his tour and would highly recommend if you really want to learn! He was kind and engaging and so much appreciated!
Damiano is extremely informative and wonderful with kids! Makes the whole experience fun for everyone-big thumbs up!
Stephanie was so knowledgeable and helpful guiding us around the museum. We were able to choose which exhibits we wanted to see and if we had a special request she accommodated us.
Everything was beatiful. Especially dinosaurs area Consider to visit at least 4 hours to enjoy everything
Very well presented to both a very young and older children. We went as a two families, 4 adults, and children aged 17, 16, 16, 13 and 4.
We had a great time with Damiano as our tour guide! He put in a lot of effort and clearly had extensive knowledge of the exhibits, which made for an informative experience. Our three teenage kids learned something new and agreed that having a guide was worth it, especially with so much to see. Overall, we really enjoyed the tour and appreciated Damiano’s enthusiasm and expertise!
The tour was amazing We skipped the waiting lines lines as promised And our tour guide was exceptionally talented Mr damiano was well informed and answered all of our questions He was polite and gentle as well as he was very interactive with my son My son has interest in dinosaurs and Mr Damiano was more than happy to answer all of his questions and show him all the things he wanted Highly recommended tour
Excellent experience, Damian is the best guide, very knowledgeable, informative and helpful. Definitely will recommend this tour!
With limited time in London, we were skeptical about spending time on this tour. Damiano created a fantastically interesting tour for both adults and kids alike. The kids were engaged throughout and we could skip the queue, which was a huge bonus. The perfect length and content as well. Thank you so much Damiano.
We have never visited the Natural History Museum before and this is was our first visit. There is so much information about the volcanos and Dinosaurs we never knew before. Our tour guide was very kind and has a lot of information and we felt taking a class with him in a tour through the museum. I highly recommend visiting this Museum and especially if you get the chance to be guided by our guide Mr. Damiano.
Our guide was Damiano. He gave us clear instructions on where and when to meet the day before the tour and arrived on-time. He greeted us very nicely and was very attentive. We have two younger children and he was very patient with them and made the whole visit very fun. The tour was awesome and he took us to the main exhibits and was able to provide a lot of detailed explanations and answer our questions. He seemed very knowledgeable from explaining on how to recognize the two families of dinosaurs, discovering the types of volcanoes and explaining about earthquakes or just simply the history of the museum itself. The whole family had a great time and experience!
Damiano was an outstanding guide. The museum was crowded, but he was able to show us the most important exhibits and explain them in a way that was both interesting and entertaining. We learned much more than we would have, if we had walked through on our own!
Guided Tour with DS Tours. Great guide, well educated, very welcoming and friendly. A must if you want to have an educational and fun time at NHM. Very recommendable. Value for money!
Damiano was a very knowledgable guide. He could answer all our questions and had good insights in the topic. I can definitely recommend Damiano for any museum tour in London.
I would like to express my gratitude to the excellent guide Damiano, who showed us around the Historical Museum in London. He is very friendly and paid special attention to my son. He took the time to communicate on his level and that made my son feel involved. Moreover, Damiano is very knowledgeable and shared fascinating riddles and facts about things. Thanks to him we had a wonderful experience in the museum. Damiano is an absolutely recommended guide!
Damiano is an excellent guide. He did a very interesting excursion around the National History museum. We asked Damiano to adapt the tour to our children and he managed to do that professionally - children laughed, listened to his stories carefully and recollected the tour all evening. A very friendly, positive and knowledgeable guide. I would definitely recommend him for everybody !
Damiano was an incredible tour guide! We loved our experience and would definitely do it again. So easy and better than just going to museum ourselves
Damiano was a great guide we all enjoyed the tour! We have learned so many new things so I would definitely recommend the guided tour.
Damiano was the perfect host to take us seamlessly through the entry gates and all throughout the natural history museum. He made us feel so welcome and made the museum feel less overwhelming by curating a lovely set of exhibits that we all enjoyed. Even my older teens were interested! i highly recommend this experience when you are in London.
Damiano’s knowledge and enthusiasm was vast as it was infectious. Leading us around the grand museum and making sure we didn’t miss anything of importance (even the sequoia on the top of the staircase) we were left with a better understanding of this iconic museum. My 5 year old nephew was enthralled with his explanations and so were we.
It was truly an unforgettable experience. The children were always attentive thanks to the guide who involved them and interested them with a thousand stories and explanations.
We went on this tour in London with our kids and it was a fantastic experience! What about ... Damiano is topppppp , The perfect organization, he is engaging and the contents designed for even the little ones made the visit fun and instructive at the same time. The kids had so much fun that, after a couple of days of visiting the BRitish Museum with him, they immediately asked us to book another one... and in fact we did it within a few days! An activity that manages to conquer young and old, really recommended for those visiting London with the family. Last thing... Prices are more than affordable.
Damiano was exceptional, kind and prepared. Also for my 8-year-old son, super addictive and helpful. Absolutely to recommend!
A highly educated guide interested in the subject. He captured the attention of our grandson. I recommend Damiano
Esperienza originale e irripetibile. Bambine entusiaste. Giornata fantastica Damiano bravissimo e gentile
Damiano was an amazing Guide during our visit to the Natural History Museum in London. He was able to involve our children, 3-5-7 years, making the visit educational and fun for them. We parents also loved his ability to make the visit interesting and enjoyable. Super recommended!
Visit to the museum with Damiano's Italian Guide. It was very pleasant, a very polite, competent person who answered our various questions and those of our daughters, with seriousness and professionalism. We learned a lot and it was a tour that definitely needs to be seen!
Thanks to Damiano's Guide, we got to visit the Nat Science Museum, a wonderful Museum, a must see. Damiano really amazing, very prepared, helpful and very good even with children. Perfect experience.
Thank you Damiano for the excellent guided visit! Excellent guide, very attentive to the kids, ensuring that they understood all the explanations and that they made the most of the experience! Worried also that no photographic recording failed! The experience was excellent!
Incredibly good visit with wonderful Damiano - in two hours got so much interesting information. There are different rooms with different themes - highly recommended!
Wonderful tour. Our guide Stefania was punctual and welcomed us warmly. The museum is really big but she showed us a lot of interesting things and was very good with our 10 and 8 year old children. Thanks again!
Today we took a guided tour of the Natural History Museum in London. The guide, Damiano, is not only prepared and available, but fun and capable of adapting the explanation to adults and teenagers. He knows how to arouse curiosity and also excite us, with anecdotes and quizzes, and he also helped us get to our destination, get around the city and gave us valid and useful advice. Without you our trip would not have been so beautiful. Thank you with all my heart.
Super interesting visit! Fantastic museum, but Damiano's guide definitely gives added value to the experience! Super recommended!!
Second guided tour with Damiano! We confirm the excellent experience! Thanks Damiano...the two pubs you recommended to us are excellent!
What a nice and pleasant tour. Damiano tells a lot of fun facts and extra things that you would otherwise never find out. Damiano is very spontaneous, social and open so you have a super afternoon.
