Questions before you book
How long does this visit last?
About 2 hours 30 minutes. The exact timing is confirmed once your group size and the CHRD's hours on the day are set.
Is the museum entry ticket included?
No, the CHRD entry ticket is paid on site. Your guide tells you the current rate before you go in.
Can I combine this with the Montluc and Neveh Shalom visit on the same day?
No. The two Memory visits are booked separately and never run on the same day: each one carries enough history and emotional weight on its own.
