Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a very thorough tour of the area and was very detailed explaining where everything took place. Everyone at the visitor’s center were so nice and helpful. Because of the crowd strike computer update we missed our flight out there and thus missed the original tour date but all the staff were so nice in helping us reschedule and I am so glad we didn’t miss out on this tour. Highly recommend for all the history nerds like me!

This was an amazing tour!! Nancy was our guide, and we felt so lucky to have had the opportunity to learn about the area from her. She is clearly so passionate about teaching history to visitors, and helping us to understand the different perspectives. She made this tour so special and worthwhile!! Go sign up for the tour! Be sure it’s a day that Nancy is here!
