Superb small (but well-packed) museum, in the heart of London. Attentive and knowledgeable staff, who have a genuine passion for what they do. Free entry, although guests invited to make a donation. Great range of Egyptian archaeological items, all well lit and beautifully displayed. Would highly recommend visiting (2nd visit for us)

The Petrie Museum has become one of my personal favourites in London. It was so much larger than I imagined, with an incredible collection of all things ancient Egypt. I feel like you could visit a dozen times and still find new things. I will definitely be back and highly recommend visiting!
