"From TX and wanted to visit for the junior ranger program. Definitely ask the ranger to start the video. It'll give you a good overview of everything. Great video. The museum is pretty cool and lots to see/do."
"I am from NC, and I know their location where they made the first flight. Although, the historical way to that event was missing, and at this location you can see all the steps the brothers did to accomplish such adventure. There are many objects from that time, and you can see the ingenuity of objects of that time."
"A hidden gem I can’t believe I didn’t discover til I was an adult. Very educational and the rangers were very accommodating to do small tours of the buildings in the area. Definitely recommend for a day trip!"
"National park with free entrance. Ranger was really helpful and informative to explain about the history and the shop. Great addition to the heritage museum with a real mid 18th century building ( shop ). Give yourself a time of 30 mins to take a look at the shop and how they worked on with a single belt driven equipment. Interesting facts to know how the bicycle parts were used up to invent airplane. And the rest is history !!!"
"Great small museum. There are tours of the cycle company throughout the day but otherwise it is closed. The visitor’s center has some excellent exhibits and my girls had a blast. Give yourself about an hour to walk through the museum in the visitor’s center. A little longer if you like to read everything. The visit to the cycle shop only takes about 20 minutes."
