Semi-private guided tour
Tips (optional)
Amanda was punctual, friendly, and very knowledgeable. She had a thorough plan on how best to tour the museum so each subject/artifact could be connected to the last. Our 11 year old son was engaged the whole time. Great experience, would definitely recommend!
