Our tours begin inside the Welcome Center. Clearing security is required and similar to going through an airport. Please arrive at least 15-20 minutes early as lines can be quite long from time to time. Be sure to have your identification ready for a smooth entry process.


After you clear security, please meet inside by the mannequin of the Army Bugler located in the center.

To ensure you have the best experience, please consider reviewing the FAQ page for important information.
