Amazing! The tour was interesting and engaging. It was a thrill to tour earthships completed and in process and to understand the 6 principles more fully. Our guide was enthusiastic and informed. Thank you!

Was so excited for this trip and it was a total disappointment. Can’t believe we had to pay anything for what we saw, and most of all waste our time signing a waiver for what? I’m not exactly sure.

Enjoyed the short self-guided tour. Having researched Earthships over the years it was great to one in person. If we would have had time we definitely would have done the guided tour.

Not really a tour. Just listened for an hour about the basic structure of the units. Expected to see something and not just sit in a classroom. As a teacher of 38 years I was just bored.

Melissa greeted me as I came in and even with her mask on she exuded enthusiasm about the Earthship concept. She was very engaging and helpful, answering all my questions. The buildings are simply amazing and it is obvious that they are a viable solution to helping us create a smaller, gentler footprint on the planet.

Guide spent way too much time reviewing information material in the room to the right of the entrance. Did enjoy touring the basic home and building across from the visitor's center.
