We have been to many civil rights museums including in D.C. and Montgomery, AL and found this museum to be a real find. It was very informative at the personal level. Our docent, Jeanne Dulin, was exceptional. I would highly recommend the guided tour for the full experience.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$16–20
An excellent museum. I first saw the hour-long video tour and then walked through the museum. The video-tour is just that. It's a walk through the museum with different guides in different sections explaining things as they would on a live tour. The guides are engaging and it works very well. When I went through the displays I had a much better appreciation for each section. I understand that live tours are available when guides are available. Whether you are lucky enough to get a live guide or you watch the video tour, either way this museum is a must-see for anyone interested in the civil rights struggle.
Powerful, heavy, educational tour today through the International Civil Rights Museum. Our guide Jeanne Dulin was extremely knowledgeable, and what a beautiful voice. Thank you! Everyone should visit this important landmark.Visited onPublic holidayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYesPrice for adult entry$16–20
Visited on 7.19.23 with zero expectations, but we were all mesmerized by our tour guide, Angela. She is a wealth of information and we agreed someone that we could listen to for hours on end. The tour pacing is perfect. The displays are powerful!! The price is reasonable, $15 for student and $20 for adult. The gift shop is cute and quaint. There was no line or wait to buy tickets and every single lady we met was delightfully friendly. We enjoyed our initial tour so much that we visited 4 days later, so we could bring new friends with us to experience it with us. I'm sure all tour guides are awesome, but when we return and we will!, we'll call ahead to make sure Angela is working, because she is a phenomenal story teller as she shares the history packed in that museum.
An interesting museum worth the trip mainly to see the preserved Woolworth counter that started off the associated wave of civil rights protests. Many of the most interesting items inside are along this theme, such as an actual example of a 'separate but equal' drinking fountain. A few odd points: despite the name, I don't recall anything "international" inside. A mask mandate is still being enforced, which seems bizarre in April of '23 when the building is nearly empty. Also, photography even with the flash off is forbidden. The reason for this is unclear. Perhaps to discourage people from jumping over the partitions, sitting on the historic seats, and pretending to sit in? Still, it's off-putting, since seeing the counter is a huge part of the draw of showing up at all.
Took the guided tour with Darren... great learning experience! Don't be afraid to participate, he's very engaging. I've been to quite a few museums like this e.g., Memphis, Atlanta and this one is very well done. Even if you've been to other Civil Rights Centers, I guarantee you'll still learn something at this one. Gift shop is also great with lots of books to extend your learning. Highly recommend!
Wow. Such a powerful place with an incredibly important story to tell. Jeanne was our tour guide and she was fantastic! The subject matter is difficult, especially the hall of shame, but it’s a story that needs to be told. I’m so glad I went and visited this historic place.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYesPrice for adult entry$16–20
My daughter and I visited the museum this week and had a wonderful experience. Our tour guide, Angela, was amazing. You are guided through moments in history that sparked the civil rights movement and also why the work must continue. I would recommend this museum to ALL. You will walk away well informed.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot surePrice for adult entry$16–20
What an amazing experience! Our tour guide, Keyshawn, really brought the whole experience several notches up. I highly recommend the guided experience. I loved how the museum connects the past to the present and makes us reflect on the path already traveled and reminds us that there’s still work ahead. Highly recommended!Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$16–20
We were asked to leave by our tour guide, Angela. Very disappointing experience. We purchased these tickets in advance only to be asked to leave just after the tour started because our child was acting in a manner appropriate for an elementary school-aged child. The facility has no problem accepting payment for elementary school children, but then doesn’t allow them to tour when they are acting their age? Tour is not family-friendly. Don’t take your kids. Fifty-five dollars down the drain.
