Docent TourTo see everything at the Flagler Museum, we advise visitors to allot two hours to tour the property. In addition to touring Whitehall, during the fall and winter months visitors may explore the  Museum's changing exhibition gallery which features temporary exhibits on topics related to Florida history and America's Gilded Age.  There are also permanent exhibits on the history of Henry Flagler's life and career and the Museum's extensive lace collection. The Flagler Kenan Pavilion, designed in the style of a 19th century Beaux Arts railway palace, houses Henry Flagler's private railcar, No. 91, and is open to visitors year round.

Special group rates are available.

The Museum offers four options for touring Whitehall. There is never an additional fee for any of these tour options. Normally all four options will be available for visitors to choose from, but at least one option will be available to visitors at all times.
