We can arrange a tour with a special admission rate for any group of 10 or more — tours should be arranged at least a week in advance, unless special arrangements have been made with the Tour Department.

    Tour Rates

    Group rates for just one site are available, but combination rates for the Johnstown Flood Museum, Heritage Discovery Center and all its features are an even better value – so plan to visit all both sites! Tour groups are welcome to tour the Wagner-Ritter House & Garden, too. The museums, which are located a half-mile apart, make for a wonderful day of sightseeing.

    Students (Ages 3 – 18): $6.00
    Seniors (Ages 62+) $6.00
    Adults (Ages 19 – 61) $7.60

    Visiting two museums (Johnstown Flood Museum and Heritage Discovery Center/ Johnstown Children’s Museum)
    Students (Ages 3 – 18): $10.00
