The ICONS Tour

Your family can explore the NC Museum of Natural Sciences with an expert guide who will share the stories and science behind the museum's most memorable exhibits and specimens. This guided experience lasts about an hour and gives visitors an insider's perspective on the collection's highlights. This tour works best for kids ages 12 and up, with all younger visitors needing an adult to register and attend. Groups are kept small at 15 people maximum, so you'll have a more personal experience. Tickets are $12 per person (free for museum members), and you'll need to book in advance—registration closes one hour before the tour starts. Tickets sell out an hour before the program begins, so plan ahead to secure your spot.
