The standard guided tour involves a twenty minute to half hour introductory presentation to the Dorsey Museum, the land of Israel, and archaeology given in the museum classroom. The presentation will be followed by a guided tour of the collection explaining the exhibits and highlighting various artifacts (approximately 45 minutes).

All requests should be made at least two weeks in advance of your desired date of visit. We will work hard to accommodate your requested time, but appreciate your understanding if no tour guides are available for your requested time.
