Guided Voyager updates destination guidance regularly, but hours, weather, access, and reservations should be checked close to departure.

Before you go

Keep Magnolia Market, downtown museums, the Suspension Bridge, and dinner in one lane instead of trying to cover the whole city in an afternoon.
Start Cameron Park, the zoo, and outdoor walks early in warm months, then hold an indoor museum or long lunch for the hottest hours.

Confirm current access, hours, reservations, and conditions with Official Magnolia Market at the Silos information.
