Great tour . The tour guide/interpreters were outstanding and made the experience so much better. Totally worth the price of admission. You can get a discount with the other museums .
The tour was wonderful. The docents were knowledgeable and acting as if they were in the shop's period added much to the charm. Well worth the small entry fee.
Excellent visit. Extremely knowledgeable staff .
5 dollar tour for adults..4 with Triple AAA or 2 for students..very interesting
Really big leeches!!
Worth the tour guide. Lots of information you cannot get just by looking around. - Robert Carbonell
Very interesting. I thought I knew quite a bit about Fredericksburg but I learned even more! - Mary Phillips
This is only a few blocks from downtown Fredericksburg and an easy walk. In fact, there are no time restrictions for parking in this neighborhood! So park here rather than downtown! - Jill H-W
