Great Highlights Tour

Arty is very personable and welcoming- we were lucky enough to be the only folks on the walking tour. We walked around several key areas of the park - it was great to hear history and highlights of the park and surrounding buildings. Arty is very knowledgeable and open to answering any of our questions. We enjoyed the tour and recommend a walking tour as a great opportunity for first-timers who want to see the highlights and gain some knowledge without wandering around trying to figure it out on your own.

Our guide Chris was great and very informative not only about the park but the surrounding area. We have visited the park dozens of times but he pointed out so many new things we had not noticed before - highly recommend.
