If your group is wanting a personalized walking tour of Metamora we can
arrange it for a group of up to 25 people. If you have more in your group it would need to be multiple tours. For a fee of $50.00 per tour we will assist you in making
arrangements (such as reservations for lunch, advance purchase of tickets
(paid separately), and discussing ideas by telephone with you in advance
of your arrival, and we will provide one half hour or more entertaining walking tour of historical
buildings, the mill and possibly some crafters doing their work.
We'll fill you in on some very interesting stories about the past. We promise you are sure to be pleased!
