Have you ever...

 "Have you ever had a tour guide that changed you & your family's whole perspective on museum-goings and history itself? Our family sure hadn't until we had a tour with Dr. Lawrence Owens at the British Museum in London. Lawrence set a bar so high that it would be near impossible for any other tour guide to surpass. not only is his knowledge and expertise truly next-level and in depth, but his ability to connect with kids & keep the whole family engaged is second to none. He was able to keep our 9 and 12 year old boys focused by saying, "...remember this because I'm going to ask you about it later," and he would! His personality and passion for the respective subjects kept all of us on our toes, wanting to learn and savor more. Our experience with Lawrence was sneakily educational and the most fun we have had on any tour. Three hours was truly not enough for a museum tour and I never thought I would say that. We highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a personal and interesting tour at any museum that lies within his realm of expertise, which seems to be all of them. Next time we visit London, Lawrence will be one of the first people we call to set up another tour and hang out....once again.  : )"    ~ Maredith & family

OVATIONS FOR Dr. OWENS

"We wanted to share a BIG thank you to Lawrence for our amazing tour at the British Museum. We thoroughly enjoyed the three hours of non-stop information sharing and exploration. Lawrence has the rare ability to keep teenagers engaged! Thanks again for a great experience; we won't go back to the British Museum without him!"

"We had a fantastic time with Dr Owens at the museum. It was the highlight of our entire vacation. I’ve never seen my two boys (10&12) more engaged and excited and they learned so much. They loved how interactive and hands on the entire tour was. They continue to spout out historical facts and quiz each other on info from the tour even now a week later. I cannot recommend Dr Owens strongly enough."

"In my experience, the more important the museum, the more necessary a guide, and I am officially obsessed with the one we had for the British Museum. Lawrence Owens is a rockstar archaeologist who knows how to keep kids’ attention with gruesome stories about ancient civilizations while imparting more education in a couple of hours than I’ve ingested in years."

HISTORY HACKS: MUMMIES #141

HIDDEN TREASURES

There was a single sock

It was shard free

Any artefact concealed would have lead to

Punishment and a ban

There was the Lucky Trowel

Worn down to little more than a spoon

Then there was the corpulent guard

With his gun

There was doubt about agility and aim

Any chase would risk fatality

To chaser and chased

Then there were the raiders

Scrabbling at the burial ground

They grabbed the gold and went

Leaving the real treasure:

The bones

And the hidden treasure:

Knowledge

The knowledge revealed

As we walked through continents

Strata, time

And evolution

 We glimpsed -

Our turbulent possible futures

"We had such a wonderful time and it's been my Dad's favourite gift!  

My Dad's written a 'word picture' from some of the amazing stories Lawrence told us "
