Join our tour guide at the Michener House Museum for a downtown walking tour! In the summer, Saturday tours are offered on a drop-in, by-donation basis. Registration is not required, but it is appreciated. We encourage guests to call the museum or check our social media for updates concerning any weather-related cancellations.
The suggested minimum donation for walking tours is $5.
Tour routes consist of approximately 1km of walking and take 45 minutes to 1 hour to complete. Tour guides use an audio headset to ensure visitors can hear their narrative.
