5.00This was a great tour. Our tour guide Todd was very knowledgeable, informative and personable. Lots of history, facts and tips. The tour gives you a taste of this wonderful city and ideas to go back and delve further into areas of interest. The choir practice was a special treat. Their voices and orchestra were amazing. The recommendation to use the Family Search library for researching ancestors was excellent, we went there in Saturday and they were so helpful. Highly recommend.
A terrific investment of 3 1/2 hours

It ends with the Tabernacle Choir rehearsal where you can leave early or stay longer as you wish. Very impressive and well worth the money.
