This specialty tour explores how almost every one of today’s popular holiday traditions – from decorating trees to sending cards to eating turkey dinner – started in the Victorian Era. The tours visit each room of the residence focusing on the lavish holiday decorations that bring to life the finest in Victorian Christmas celebrations.
The tour is guaranteed to get you into the holiday spirit and arm you with enough holiday trivia to impress everyone at your next holiday gathering!
Each guest will also receive, as a small holiday gift from Hearthstone, recipe cards featuring favorite Victorian Christmas fare as well as booklets detailing the museum’s Victorian Christmas: The Twelve Days of Christmas.
