Group Tours

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.

The Mark Twain House has undergone some major changes recently that help define us as a major group destination. Your group will feel welcome and able to enjoy their surroundings as they visit Twain's unique Victorian home and learn about one of America's most beloved authors.

The Mark Twain House is shown by guided tour only, with each tour lasting approximately 45 minutes. Groups must be divided into smaller groups of no more than 16 for the house tour. Each group is led by trained historic interpreters, and encompasses all three floors of the house. The Museum Center is self-guided and will take approximately 1 ½ hours to view the orientation exhibit, introductory video and any changing exhibits. A visit to the Mark Twain Store and café complete the visit.

To qualify for a group rate, a minimum of 10 people is required and reservations must be made at least two weeks prior to date of visit. Use form below or call Caitlin Thayer at 860-247-0998, Ext. 154.
