Tips & Advice
- Bring your Eventbrite email receipt to Hotel Bardo on tour day, since there's no early pickup and that's where you get your guidebook and wristband.
- Wear comfortable flat shoes for walking, because high heels aren't allowed on the historic wood floors inside the homes.
- Buy only through Eventbrite, as all sales are final with no refunds, exchanges or waitlist, and resold tickets may not be honored.
- Arrange care for children under 12 and leave strollers behind, since neither is admitted to tour properties and no exceptions are made on tour day.
- Put your phone away inside the homes, because photography and video aren't allowed there out of respect for the homeowners.
