School Tours

More than a field trip

Touring the Museum is an opportunity to inspire curiosity and wonder. We welcome groups to visit and learn about Bonner County history by exploring artifacts and exhibits that share the history of our region. School tours cost $1 per student, and all chaperones receive free admission. You can inquire about a guided tour or guide your own group around the Museum at your own pace. For guided tours we can accommodate a max of 20 guests per docent. If you have more than 20 people, you can self-guide part of your visit and rotate with the docent.  For younger students or special accommodations you may fill out a request to see if we can meet your needs.

Self-guided tours include a brief welcome to the Museum by a staff member and then are facilitated by the group leader or teacher. Teachers can preview the Museum and create a plan for facilitating a visit to meet their educational goals. Filling out a Tour Request Form will help us find the best time for your visit.
