They had a 35 minute movie to watch that was very informative at 2:45 they had a first come first serve narrative van tour of the battle ground all included in your ticket price. That was very informative and we really enjoyed it. Gift shop has lots of interesting things as well. And they have a Mobile tour that can guide you around outside if you didn’t get the van tour. Well worth the ticket price.
