Our docent was perfect for our group and needs. She led us on an informative and charming walk through Soho to the British Museum where she dazzled us with her knowledge of the fabulous Assyrian exhibit and Greek marbles. She gladly adjusted our schedule to our last minute request to add lunch at and suggested a wonderful spot where we picked her brains and she provide tips to my niece who just arrived for a semester at Kings College. She then escorted us by tube to the V&A chatting to us all the way about the South Ken area and other interesting things we might explore at the museum and throughput the city. She ended by orienting is to the VA and guided us to the British galleries. We were so happy with her brilliant knowledge, engaging personality and flexibility.

Our docent took everything in stride. We were late, but she still made our tour of Oxford memorable. She shared her inside information about the students who attended University College around the same time I attended a summer program there. (For example, Bill Clinton didn't take his exams. He remained a Rhodes Scholar without a degree from Oxford). We loved our private meeting with the Christ Church librarian, who was delightful, and generous with his time. We couldn't have asked for more.
