Reviews
"Way cool place to visit and learn and trains and Aiken for kids and adults. Bunches of interesting models with 'Where's Waldo?' questions for kids. We all learned interesting train facts and history. (Train travel led to Bisquick? Who knew?) Having lived in Aiken, it was cool to learn so much about the train history of Aiken. Plan an hour or so. Well with the investment of time."
"The docent was very nice, once she finally came over to help. Took me calling the phone to get her to come over after she saw me standing there for several minutes. Beautiful building, and great resources. I wish they had a map and listing of the trees in the Arboretum."
"Aiken Trolley Tour departs from the visitors center. A very informative two hour tour of the history of Aiken while riding around comfortably..Also included a 20 minute walking tour of Hopelands Garden and the on site Thoroughbred racing museum."
"History of Aiken, told beautifully at this center. Lots if information to digest and remarkable dioramas. Staff is extremely nice and ready to help."
