School Field Trips

Our educational tours are an indispensable learning tool that your students will be talking about long after their visit.

Field trips are approximately 60 minutes in length and include activities connecting the tour to classroom curriculum.

What To Know Before You Go

Kindergarten through 5th grade classes visiting during the August-May academic school year may qualify for a free field trip, funded through a grant provided by the Floyd family. Available funds and field trip times are limited.

Field trips are required to have a minimum of 1 adult chaperone for every 10 students.

Reservations must be made at least seven days in advance of your visit to qualify for a free field trip.

Every school will receive one free chaperone admission for every 10 students.

Additional chaperones being paid for by the school will receive a reduced admission price of $8.50.

Regular admission price of $14.75 will apply to any chaperones paying individually.
