ABOUT OUR GROUP TOURS:
Our private and group tours are identical to our TOURS.
Tour Duration
All tours are 2.5 hours
Group Size
We are able accommodate groups of 12 for the tours.
Arriving On Time
It is very important that your group arrives on time. We ask all private groups to arrive 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of 2:00. This will give us the time needed to organize the group, send a few people to the restroom, answer questions, and give the tour overview. It is also very important to arrive on time as the tour must depart promptly at 2:00.
Restrooms
Although there are restroom stops available during the tour, we do not make dedicated stops for them. Please use the facilities prior to arrival for the tour.
Gratuities
In the tourism industry, it is customary to tip the tour guide. For Group Tours, an 18% gratuity will be added to your total cost. Your tour guide greatly appreciates this!
Booking a Tour
Please fill out the Group Tour Request Form. Advance bookings are required; tours dates get booked well in advance. Weekday tours are much easier to book than weekend tours.
Other Questions
Please go to the
Frequently Asked Questions page for further tour information. We will answer all of your questions by phone or email once we receive the completed Private Tour Request Form.
