There is absolutely no way, you could get as nice a hotel, a reservation at hofbräuhaus the night before, and a reservation at a Traditional Tent, trying to book this trip on your own. Trust me, I tried. You get everything from the traditional to the touristy if you want it, on this tour. We love the traditional tent reservation that is included in this tour, it is fun and festive. The hotel we stay in is modern, clean, and a great location to the fair grounds. Our Tour Guide Michael is the best part of this tour, he is so helpful and relaxed. He is there to make sure we have fun while staying safe in a foreign city.

A great museum complex packed with tons of fascinating exhibits and history!…read moreThis is a place with several "museums within a museum" because there is the main visitor's center building that has a variety of aviation exhibits, but it also houses the parachute museum within the walls of the visitor's center. There is also a national parks gift shop where you can get your passport stamped, buy aviation related merchandise and get some other national parks items. Across from the entrance, there is another building - one of the Wright Brothers cycle shop buildings. You can enter as part of one of their hourly tours. The exhibits inside are informative and a few are interactive. They also show a film about the Wright Brothers lives. They also offer a junior ranger program book that gets kids more engaged in the exhibits. My daughter loved completing the booklet and getting sworn in as a ranger! If you are traveling the aviation trail (or if you are wanting to learn more about the Wright Brothers) this is a must visit! The staff were wonderful and informative.

This is a very worthwhile visit and one of the better curated museums that I've seen among the NPS…read morefacilities. And that is saying something because I think the collection of NPS museums are among the best around. This particular facility is located by the Wright Brothers 4th cycle shop in near-West Dayton. When we visited, there were a handful of opportunities to tour the small shop itself on the half hour through the middle of the day. This was with one of the NPS guides as an interpreter. The shop tour was only 20 - 30 minutes but provided an excellent overview of the history of the Brothers as their business ventures evolved and as they eventually moved toward aeronautics. The display also touches on the history of the bicycle and its place in American life at the close of 19th Century. This itself is an interesting subject to explore a bit. Note that registration for and commencement of the tour are in the Visitor Center. The museum in the main building is two floors and covers the lives of the Wrights as well as that of Paul Laurence Dunbar. The story of the Wrights is fascinating and their mechanical genius is well documented. The struggles with the patent and overcoming political obstinance within the US government is a part of the narrative most don't know. What particularly caught my attention was their discovery that the accepted physical constants of the day regarding drag coefficients, etc. were wrong and were impeding efforts toward successful flight by those in the field. This discovery and their subsequent corrective action gave them their leg up in being the first to advance flight. While science is by definition objective reality, sometimes humans interpret it incorrectly crossing the boundary between science and dogma. The claim of "scientific fact" always comes with potentially fallible interpretation and should always be questioned. It's hard to reverse a wrong path. Dunbar's life is an equally interesting story. A prolific writer who died far too early, his journey to get past the profound racial barriers of his day is one worth understanding. It is significant to ponder what could have been without the shackles of prejudice. His brilliance is clear from his writing and the volume of his production. A visit to this museum is time well spent. The lives of the Wrights, the history of flight, the state of the art in the area of mechanical devices in the late 19th century and the life of PL Dunbar are all intriguing subjects that are explored. You can easily spend 2 - 3 enjoyable hours here.

I believe you can have up to 14 people and we used all that space and fit comfortable on the boat.

The tour included 6 food/drink stops and a few bonus stops of interest along the way. It lasted about 3.5 hours and we walked around 2 miles total. Each of the restaurants told us a little about their establishment and then shared a delicious sampling of what they have to offer. Chrissie was a fantastic guide with a wealth of information about Dayton history as we walked. She kept us moving to keep on schedule but it never felt rushed. JAM started as just a summer venture, but hopefully they will decide to add dates this fall. We will definitely recommend them to friends.
