TAKE A TOUR AND SAY HELLO
Tour information
All of our facilities have attained the prestigious
Baby-Friendly designation and we
invite you to come for a visit. Our tours are free of charge, but we ask
that you register in advance so we can keep the group size
small. A small group size allows you to ask all your questions and enables our tour
guides to offer you personal attention.
We look forward to meeting you!
