We had a private tour at the American Journey Experience with Jenna and it was absolutely wonderful! So many priceless, unique and interesting artifacts from American history. I would definitely visit again and recommend this tour to anyone, not just the history buffs. We took our 10 year old and 15 year old and they thoroughly enjoyed it as well. Something for all ages!

We knew before going we were in for a FANTASTIC treat! I had communicated ahead of time by e-mail, since we came from Florida. The e-mail process was very smooth, there was only one day we could visit, and I arranged to be there on a certain day. When we arrived in Irving TX. they were ready for us! Immediately we were introduced to Mike- Education Coordinator who I had communicated with. He was GREAT-very friendly and approachable. He led us around the first section of the museum, showing us amazing things that we would not be able to see ordinarily. Jena also joined Mike as a guide and they took turns telling us about the Great items we saw. Most museums I have been to, everything is behind glass, as they do not want you touching things. They had us wash our hands ahead of time- we were able to touch and hold things from centuries ago! Some of the highlights were Rita Hayworth's car (engagement gift from Orson Welles in the 40's- married him in 1943), George Washington's calipers from surveying and the 1812 Bible -allowed to touch these things. Able to take pictures- some of them were Movie props-James Bonds suit, Star Trek & Star Wars movie items, we enjoyed the History told to us and could tell they knew the circumstances and use of the items. We were also able to go through the vault which was very interesting. Thanks to Mike and Jena for the outstanding job they did in taking us through the museum. We will never forget it and will remember the visit as a highlight of our trip to the Dallas, Texas area.
