Most guests complete their visit in about one hour, but the full tour path is open to guests for the 2-hour duration of the tour. Instead of following a designated guide from station to station at a set pace, guests are welcome to wander the tour path at your own pace and according to your own interests. Docents and staff are stationed along the path to educate and answer questions.
