How many hours would you say an average visit would be? I’m interested in the guided tours in addition to evening activities. Just sounds like a long day!

Thanks for your question. There are paved walkways connecting most or all of the buildings. I don't remember if any of the buildings themselves can only be accessed by steps. You might call and ask. The lectures themselves seem to be given IN the buildings so you'd want to check building access. The museum/gift shop is easily accessible via paved surfaces from the parking lot and there were no steps in the museum/gift shop that I recall.
