Our most popular tour, the Highlights Tour, is a 2.5-hour guided experience that is fast-paced and showcases the best of Taliesin, Frank Lloyd Wright’s 800-acre home and estate. If you’re a first-time visitor, architecture enthusiast, or looking for a comprehensive overview of the property’s most notable highlights, this is the tour for you!
What's included
The tour is led by a knowledgeable and engaging guide, and features visits to two iconic Wright-designed structures: Taliesin, including Wright’s Personal Drafting Studio and the interior of his personal residence, and Hillside, including the stunning 5,000 square foot Drafting Studio and newly renovated Hillside Theater. Along the way, you’ll see Wright’s Romeo and Juliet Windmill and Midway Barn during a scenic shuttle ride through the property, all while learning about Wright’s legacy and architectural genius.
