Do the tour to appreciate what you are seeing - Highly recommend the skip the line 1.5 hour tour. We walked in right past the huge lines. Tour guide Victoria was excellent- she was a great historical story teller and we learned so much. The headsets worked great and we could hear good. Highlight of trip!

Nice Job! - Overall, very good! We got in immediately. Vera did a great job on providing the history of David. She was extremely professional & came equipped with an iPad to provide pictures that visually enhanced the narrative. It was summertime and crowded. Sometimes it was a little loud and sometimes a little muggy. The microphone did cut out a few times but Vera did her best given the situation.
