De aanpak van Tripadvisor met betrekking tot beoordelingen
Voordat Tripadvisor-beoordelingen geplaatst worden, gaan ze door een geautomatiseerd trackingsysteem dat informatie verzamelt en de volgende vragen beantwoordt: hoe, wat, waar en wanneer. Als het systeem iets detecteert dat potentieel in tegenspraak is met onze communityrichtlijnen, dan wordt de beoordeling niet gepubliceerd.
Wanneer het systeem een probleem detecteert, wordt een beoordeling mogelijk automatisch afgekeurd, naar de junior bijdrager gestuurd voor goedkeuring, of handmatig beoordeeld door ons team van contentspecialisten die 24/7 aan de kwaliteit van de beoordelingen op onze website werken.
Ons team controleert elke beoordeling die op onze website geplaatst wordt en volgens onze bezoekers niet aan onze communityrichtlijnen voldoet.

Go downtown to the visitor center and get your FREE ticket to tour the house. Watch the informative movie before touring the house. Go through the Nolan House across the street, too. It will make you appreciate history.

The NHS is in the downtown area of Independence and had a small visitor center and gift shop in its headquarters. It had a nice little video about Truman’s post-presidency. We walked around the downtown and saw the soda shop where he worked and then drove over to the Truman house. While we didn’t have enough time to take the home tour, we walked around the outside and got photos.

A free stop that lead to us learning a lot. You sign up for a tour at the visitor center. The guide was very informative and had no problem with reminding visitors to not touch the house. We learned a lot and this was our first more modern historical house and we enjoyed it. He was so humble about being president and it was a nice change of pace.

Here's a suggestion: If you have the time; if you're going to visit the Harry S Truman Presidential Library & Museum, try to visit the "Truman Home" as well. But plan ahead. This venue is closed on Monday and Tuesday.
I suggest you first secure your tickets for the house tour, and then go tour the Presidential Library.
To tour the house, you have to go into town and "get tickets". The park visitor center is located at 223 N. Main St. Tours are limited in size to no more than eight, and tickets are issued on a first come, first serve basis. Tours are available Wednesday through Sundays. The website says the tour is about 30 minutes--but my tour took an hour, and I have heard from others that an hour is really the norm. At the appointed time of your tour, you meet the park ranger in front of the house.
Margaret Truman didn't want the house to look or feel like a museum. So the house is basically the way it was at the death of Bess Truman. For this reason, tour groups are small, so the ranger can more easily supervise.
The ranger who led my tour was really informative. The house is really a time capsule.

This 9000 square foot home, built by his wife's grandfather became the only homes that Harry & Bess shared. Because Bess's mother did not leave a will, Harry & Bess had to buy the property. The house looks exactly the way it did when Bess Truman died in 1982, ten years after Harry's death. Among the furnishings are the couples' favorite chairs and the piano they bought their daughter for Christmas (although she really wanted a train set). The kitchen, which was decorated by the President , is awful, with red checked wallpaper (even on the ceiling) and the trim is that 50s green.. Only the first floor is open to the public because of an unsecured staircase going up to the 2nd floor.

This park consists of three buildings. The visitor center is small and contains a good video and a few exhibits and a bookstore. You need to obtain tickets to visit the home. The tickets are free but on busy days they might sell out. Get there early. The house tour is a bit disappointing as you are only allowed on the first floor. But our ranger-guide was excellent. The Noland house across the street is also open and features some exhibits and videos, The Truman Farm house is also part of the park. It is about 20 minutes south of the home and not particularly interesting, There are only a few acres of the farm left. The house is open on weekends for a guided tour, but not much to see.

This was my favorite museum in Independence! And there are many great historical sites. What I didn’t know about one of America’s best presidents. He was a regular American thrust on the world stage and his decisions are still shaping our country and the world!

I visited Harry S. Truman NHS in Missouri and was met with an amazing staff. The park ranger allowed me to take a photo on the porch and she chatted with me for about 20 minutes answer several questions. Great experience.

Second time visiting the home and learn more every time. The house is kept exactly like how it was when the Truman were alive. Fun to see the history and beauty of the home

How long does the tour of Truman's home last and is it part of the Truman walking trail?
Thank you for any help.

The tour is about 30 minutes. You have to get tickets, which are free, at the visitor center which is about 5 blocks away from the home. Then you can either walk or drive to the home. Tours run every 30 minutes but they only allow about 8 people per time slot so depending on how busy it is, there may be a wait. It was definitely neat to see as the inside of the home is exactly as it was when Bess died. Very interesting to see it kind of frozen in time right down to his car still sitting in the garage! As far as it being part of the walking trail, I'm not sure as we did not do that. I'm guessing though since you need tickets, you may go by it but not get the tour.

You mainly need to get there early so you can get a ticket. Tours are small. It’s getting places on a tour more
Than money that’s the issue. It’s a National Park somota not costly.
