Scheduling School Tours
School Group Tours
School groups and college-sponsored classes are welcome to tour Salisbury House. Tours of Salisbury House typically last just over an hour. Tour planners should plan on an hour and a half of time for their event from the time the bus arrives at Salisbury House to the time it departs. This will provide you with ample time for restroom stops and a chance to visit the museum shoppe either before or after the tour.
