Super Informative Walking Tour with a National Parks and Museum Expert

Kimberly_S, Apr 2026

Having a walking tour with Shelly was fabulous! It was a small group so we were able to hear everything she said and were able to ask all our questions.

Informative and interesting.

This tour was great for our family. Highly informative and interesting. It gave our kids context for what they were seeing and the adults were impressed by the guide’s knowledge of the monuments and the thinking behind their designs.
