Private Tours

Guests to the Remington Museum enjoy a self-guided tour through the Museum. However, you can choose a private tour if you would like a more personal and in-depth experience. Private tours are typically 1 to 1.5 hrs long and are led by a knowledgeable docent or educator. To ensure the best possible experience for you, all requests for private tours must be made in advance (typically 1 week prior is sufficient). 

Cost for private tour: $50 booking fee paid in advance (non-refundable) plus a $15 entry fee per person paid at the time of the tour
