Most Overrated Tourist Attractions in Each State

There isn't too much of a downside to visiting Hawaii, but there are certainly areas that are more designated for tourists. One example is Waikiki Beach in Oahu, because it's essentially a strip of luxury hotels, expensive stores, and chain restaurants on a crowded beach.

The majority of what can be found at Waikiki Beach is already at most beach towns across the U.S. Instead, visitors should find areas that show off Hawaii's natural beauty such as the Na Pali Coast in Kauai, Lanai Lookout in Oahu, or Pipiwai Trail in Maui.

The aptly-named Mall of America is the largest mall in the United States with a total of 555 stores, a theme park, aquarium, and many more attractions. Any avid shopper would be able to spend multiple days here on a spree, but it may be too much to handle for others.

Since it's so big, the Mall of America is constantly overcrowded with people coming to check out what it has to offer. With the heavy crowds, a loud theme park, and daily events, a trip to this mall can feel like sensory overload.

Around half a million people make their way to the Corn Palace in Mitchell, South Dakota every year. The building is covered in murals made from corn and other grains, and the facility is used as a multi-purpose venue for concerts, sports games, exhibits, and more.

Those who come to the Corn Palace say they don't really have much to do other than look at the corn murals and take some photos. When there aren't any events going on, the inside is just a conference center so there isn't much to see there, either. Most reviewers report that once they got to the Corn Palace their visit wasn't any longer than 10 minutes.

Hollywood is the movie-making capital of the world, so it's only natural that tourists would want to see the iconic Hollywood sign in person. While it may seem enticing to get as close as possible it's actually illegal to touch it. The closest visitors can get is through certain hiking trails that take people up and above the sign.

Similar to a lot of tourist attractions, it's only something to look at from afar for photo opportunities. Those who find themselves in Los Angeles and want to get the most out of the city should check out the world-renowned museums, restaurants, and clothing stores instead.

Almost all travel guides recommend that people visiting New York for the first time go to Times Square. It's smack dab in the middle of Manhattan and features streets lined with chain restaurants and stores, people dressed in outrageous costumes, and towering advertisements that are lit up at all times.

This may seem very overwhelming, and that's one of the reasons to avoid Times Square. It's considered to be one of the most popular tourist attractions in the world, so there will most certainly be huge crowds. Also, the stores and restaurants there can be found in most American towns.

The Shell Service Station is located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and has been around for 90 years. It was constructed to bring brand awareness to Shell, with bright yellow and red shell-shaped service stations. It is the only one remaining out of the eight that were built in the area and it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.

This landmark may be interesting to look at, but there isn't much else for visitors to do. The Shell Service Station is now only being used as a satellite office and a museum for Preservation North Carolina.

Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market is a staple of downtown Boston, Massachusetts, but real Bostonians know that it's mainly a tourist hub. These buildings serve as a festival marketplace where visitors can grab a bite to eat at the food hall or go shopping at the surrounding stores.

As time has passed Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market have become filled with food stands that only cater to tourists and chain stores that can be found in most malls. Also, it can frequently be crowded with people going from one end to the other, and frustratingly long lines.

Las Vegas, Nevada, has plenty of tourist traps, and the Venetian gondolas are included in that list. These are modeled after the famous gondola rides in Italy and have costumed paddlers taking riders around the surrounding hotel and shops.

Unfortunately, it couldn't be further from the Italian experience. Past riders have described it as floating through chlorinated, blue pool water for less than 15 minutes. The only things to look at are the other tourists who are either betting or shopping in the mall. Even though the ride is short, the cost isn't cheap, with a private ride for two costing $116.

The reason the lady in the photo is splayed out on the ground is because she's in four states at once. The Four Corners Monument connects Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico where they border each other. It's the only area in the United States where at least four states come together.

The reality of the Four Corners Monument is that it's in the middle of nowhere, so all there is to do is take photos and stand around without cell phone service or wi-fi. Also, there are reports that the monument lines are inaccurate with the real borders, which kind of takes away from the thrill.

Anyone familiar with American history would know that the Liberty Bell is a symbol of freedom and it became famous when it was rung after the reading of the United States Declaration of Independence. The bell dates back to 1752 and has a signature crack down the middle that was formed in the early 19th century.

Tourists who wish to visit it can find it at the Liberty Bell Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Fans of colonial American history might get a kick out of the trip, but for some others, it's just a place where they can observe and take photos of an old piece of metal.

Any fans of aliens, space travel, or UFOs should be familiar with the town of Roswell, New Mexico. In 1947 a weather balloon crashed near Roswell, but in the late 1970s new theories by UFO "experts" said that it was actually an alien spacecraft and the military was trying to cover it up.

Now, the town is filled with alien and UFO memorabilia, with buildings shaped like they're from outer space and too many alien toys to count. It's probably one of the kitschiest tourist attractions in America and can be seen in less than a day.

There are multiple parks in Orlando, Florida's Walt Disney World, and the most underwhelming is Epcot. It's is divided into two sections called Future World and World Showcase, with country-themed pavilions for people to try out different foods and drinks from around the world. There are a few rides, but not nearly as many as the other parks.

Some visitors thought that the country pavilions were merely stereotypes of countries shown in a flashy Disney way. Those who are short for time traveling at Disney World should skip this park altogether and instead head over to the Magic Kingdom, Disney's Hollywood Studios, or Disney's Animal Kingdom.

Beale Street in Memphis, Tennessee is significant in the history of American music because it's where early blues performers played shows in the 1920s. Now, the street has become much more than blues clubs and restaurants. It also features festivals and outdoor concerts.

This all may seem exciting and worth visiting, but as the years passed, Beale Street has turned corporate and come say it lacks its original blues culture. Tourists end up losing their money paying for overpriced food and drinks in a loud, overcrowded part of town. Instead, a more authentic representation of Memphis can be found at Overton Square and the Cooper-Young areas.

One of the most famous places in Texas is The Alamo Mission in San Antonio, where Texas fought for independence from Mexico (but lost this battle). It's now a local monument where tourists come to take photos and learn more about the Battle of the Alamo.

It may be interesting to see the Alamo in person, but there's not much to it besides a tall stone building in the middle of the park. Luckily, The Alamo is a short distance from the San Antonio River Walk where patrons can walk along the scenic banks and explore the natural beauty of central Texas.

Not even the biggest college sports fan would have a blast at Indiana's NCAA Hall of Champions. The place needs a revamp, and fast. Some added memorabilia wouldn't hurt, or even more guest appearances.

With all the money the NCAA has, you would think they would pour more into a place like this. Calling it underwhelming is probably the best way to describe the letdown. Maybe they'll step things up in the near future.

World of Coca-Cola has everything you would possibly want to know about the classic soda. Some visitors complained that it felt like a prolonged commercial that you have to pay to see. Others were angry that there wasn't too much to learn about the history of the company after the formula was invented.

They also have a tasting room, but it can get chaotic when crowds of people are all trying to go after the same thing at once. Many guests were disappointed to exit through a huge gift shop, which further commercializes the whole experience.

One of the top tourist attractions in Seattle, Washington, might seem a bit gross to some people. Under Pike Place Market there's a theater with a wall completely covered in gum, which became known as the Market Theater Gum Wall. The tradition began in 1993 when Seattle theatergoers stuck coins embedded in gum to the wall.

While it may be fun to visit the gum wall at first there are still some downsides. It was voted one of the top five germiest tourist attractions in the world and there isn't much else to do besides taking photos or sticking another piece of gum on the wall.

Seeing Noah's ark in real life isn’t as exciting when the cost of admission is an arm and a leg. Though the ark stands at an impressive 510 feet long, 85 feet wide, and 51 feet high, it’s $50 to get in.

Inside is a museum that takes a couple of hours to get through and shows you fake animals that you could just as easily find in a zoo. Once you get past the enormity of the structure, you’ll realize you just paid a huge admission to go into an ark-shaped building.

Tourists have traveled to the Atlantic City Boardwalk in New Jersey for many years, but it has lacked its former glitz and glamour for a while. This run-down beach town is left with eyesore casinos, tacky souvenir shops, and high crime rates.

Since it's been a tourist hub for decades it has become extremely worn down and littered with vagrants begging for money. In recent years it has become a ghost town with almost nothing open, especially during the non-summer months. Visitors who want to experience what it used to be like should go to Las Vegas because the casinos and shops there are a bit more high-end.

Located in the actual North Pole, Alaska's Santa Claus House is designed for those who love the Christmas season. It's been open since 1952 and features a 50-foot Santa Claus statue, reindeer, photos with Santa and Mrs. Claus, and a gift shop with tons of Christmas merchandise.

Their online site also offers people the chance to get personalized letters from Santa for their kids or grandkids. This may be a Christmas lover's paradise, but for most, it feels overrated because it's basically just an overpriced holiday gift shop in the middle of nowhere.

Are you a huge Elvis Presely fan? If so, then even you might not enjoy a trip to Graceland in Tennessee. Many still love the king, but his Graceland mansion is a waste of a tourist attraction.

Yes, the grounds look lavish, but there isn't anything spectacular enough that convinces us it's worth the steep price point. You have to be a die-hard fan to like this, so do yourself a favor and save some money when you're in Tennessee.

The Magnificent Mile is the largest shopping district in Chicago, Illinois. Not only does it feature some mid to high-end shops, but there are also restaurants, museums, and hotels. It is what Rodeo Drive is to Beverly Hills and Fifth Avenue to Manhattan, making it the eighth-most expensive place to rent in the United States.

Most of what's located on the Magnificent Mile can be found in most American cities, so it shouldn't be the focal point of a Chicago vacation. If you want a good view of the city's skyscrapers, try going to Millennium Park or the Willis Tower.

For a place named Craters of the Moon, one would expect something a little more out of this world, no? Well, when you head to Idaho for a visit to this national monument, don't expect much.

You're really only going to see a landscape with volcanic rock. You've got about ten solid minutes of excitement before the thrill goes away. If you're planning a trip there soon, just don't say that we didn't warn you!

Americans who don't want to travel across the pond to England's Stonehenge can make their way to Alliance, Nebraska. This is where a replica called Carhenge is situated with vintage, gray spray-painted automobiles formed to look like Stonehenge. It was created in 1987 by Jim Reinders as a memorial to his father.

Carhenge is a typical American roadside attraction with space to stretch your legs, take photos, or explore the gift shop. A half-hour stay here is probably on the long end and there isn't much else to do for at least 100 miles.

They call it the Mysterious Viking Tower and that's about as good as it gets. When the name is better than the actual site, you know something is wrong with that.

The mystery is that no one knows who constructed this random structure in the middle of Newport. Some people seem to think the Vikings did it, which would make it one of the oldest buildings in all the nation. What it boils down to is that this place is boring to visit.

Located in South Carolina is a gas station and restaurant with a larger-than-average gift shop. The name of the place is South of the Border, but that's for a good reason.

It sits at the border between South and North Carolina. It's literally right below the border, so the name fits. Other than that, there's nothing to see here unless you have a craving for the specific food they have to offer or if you need to fill up.

Located in Utah is the Moqui Cave. Don't be fooled by any images you might come across while swiping on social media, this place isn't even a cave at all! Erosion created this "cave."

It isn't even an ancient landmark because no, the Native Americans didn't build it or use it. You can call this place a glorified gift shop. If you want a fancy souvenir, feel free to make the trip and waste your money!

To call something the Rock of Ages, it had better be pretty spectacular. Vermont took it upon themselves to label an old granite quarry something that sounds sensational. It is far from that.

There are only natural pools there and your excitement should last for about ten minutes. It's far from the Grand Canyon, or anything else with a stellar name. It's just a place with blue water and rocks everywhere you look.

First of all, would you trust dairy from Mars? We know Wisconsin has a reputation for its cheese, but the Mars Cheese Castle is nothing more than the epitome of a money grab.

This place is just an eye-catcher as you drive along the freeway. It makes you want to drive to it and once you're in there, you'll only find cheese, something you can get anywhere in Wisconsin. You don't need the castle.

Do you feel like seeing a regular home while in Ohio? Cool, just go to the house from A Christmas Story and your dreams will come true. If only that were true. Why bother waiting in line and paying to see a restored Victorian home when you can go see something more worthwhile? There are at least a handful of tourist attractions in Ohio that are better than this place. That's why you have your handy smartphone to help you find them.

In a recent survey, the Hollywood Walk of Fame was ranked as the most overrated tourist attraction in America. The street is so bad that it even has negative reviews. Why? Because of the crowds, pick-pocketers, and the fact that you get the point within two minutes.

Although the Walk of Fame looks huge in pictures, it’s only about two blocks long. You’d have to walk through the most crowded part of L.A. to see it all, and the few pictures you get there are hardly worth it. There are plenty of other sights to see in Hollywood.

Star Trek fans know that Captain Kirk, the main character and leader of the USS Enterprise, is said to be born in Riverside, Iowa. A monument has been set up for James Kirk’s “future birthplace” in 2228. This site is not only overrated, but incorrect in the Star Trek universe. When the town’s mayor learned that Captain Kirk was born in a small town in Iowa, he and show creator Gene Roddenberry decided that it would be Riverside. Unfortunately, all there is to see there is this monument.

Are you that into twine? Be honest with yourself. If not, you don’t need to take a detour to Cawker City, Kansas. The ball began with one resident, and eventually, the entire community got involved. They kept contributing to the twine ball until it stopped being funny. Sure, the twine ball has been around since the 1950s. And, yes, it’s a funny story. If you’re driving to Waconda Lake, you may as well stop by. But this trip to the largest ball of twine takes ten minutes at best. It’s hardly worth it.

In Cullman, Alabama, you can visit miniature replicas of the most famous religious structures in the world. You read that right: tiny replicas, not anything that you can see in detail. In the early 20th century, a Benedictine monk named Brother Joseph created these sculptures in his free time.

If you’re a religion or art expert, you may gain something out of Ave Maria Grotto. Otherwise, there’s nothing to do besides taking some photos and praying. It’s like a religious Legoland if we’re being honest.

Crater of Diamonds State Park is the only diamond-filled site available to the public. Sounds cool, right? If you're a treasure hunter, then maybe. But since this Arkansas park has been open since 1906, most of the goodies were taken a long time ago.

If you were to visit Crater of Diamonds, you’d see a large empty field with people wandering around. You’ll find some trees, dirt, and abandoned cabins, but otherwise, there’s nothing interesting to look at. But if you want to try your luck, go for it. Some fortunate people have actually found diamonds.

Buffalo Bill was the world’s first superstar. After he dazzled the Old West with his scouting, riding, and performance tours, he was buried in the biggest funeral in Colorado’s history. His gravesite isn’t nearly as exciting as his life.

Unless you’re into visiting graves, the Buffalo Bill Grave isn’t worth visiting. The museum is where the real fun is; photos, artifacts, and information on the Old West are entertaining to explore. But the grave is just a photo opportunity.

In Rehoboth, Delaware, the boardwalk connects to a mile-long street that’s the ultimate tourist trap. Spoiler alert: it’s hardly different than any other boardwalk. You can eat and shop for overpriced souvenirs (which have received many complaints in the past couple of years). Business Insider called Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk “not technically overrated, but certainly overcrowded.” Because parking spots are practically nonexistent, and you’ll have to snap fast to avoid a photobomb, the boardwalk is only worth a one-time visit. But hey, it’s not the worst tourist trap on this list.

If you've ever been to a desert, or even have merely seen one on television or the internet, you already know what to expect: a whole lot of nothing but sand. That’s where The Desert of Maine is a huge disappointment as it’s surrounded by pine trees.

The plastic camels dispersed all over the place only underscore how much this attraction is a faux desert meant to swindle tourists with pointless sand souvenirs. If you want to visit a relatively small patch of sand, try the beach. It’s more fun.

Don't get us wrong, Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! museums can be fun to go through. But they’re also present in several states throughout the US. If you find yourself in Baltimore, visiting a relatively common museum should be the last thing on your agenda.

Baltimore is one of those places overflowing with art and culture. For a really good time, go on a sightseeing tour; they even have helicopter sightseeing tours available! Whatever you do, have it be something that’s uniquely part of Baltimore, not a gimmicky attraction.

Although many shots from Burning Man make it look like the wildest party there is, that's only become less true in recent years as the festival celebrating the world's weirdness has become more disappointing.

What was once a proud collective of chaos has become increasingly commodified by the rich, and depending on the weather, the site in Nevada's Black Rock Desert is either unbearably hot or drowned in mud. It's still possible to have fun there and catch some crazy creations like this, but it may not be for long.

While those who are passionate about American history will likely be excited to see it no matter what anybody says, Plymouth Rock is more significant as the site of the early pilgrims' voyage to the United States than as a tourist experience.

It's not even a particularly big rock, and the "1620" inscription engraved into it is all that distinguishes it from any other rock in the area. However, those who visit Plymouth Rock may at least get a chance to enjoy seeing the Mayflower II sail. Built during the 1950s, this is a replica of the famous ship that ferried the pilgrims over.

To its credit, Venice Beach has a solid skatepark where people of all ages have the room and facilities to do their respective things. However, those who aren't skateboarders will find that there isn't much else to do there besides buying knick-knacks.

And unless visitors enjoy being harassed by people trying to sell their mixtapes, they're likely to have a lot more fun at the Santa Monica Pier in the next town over. Frankly, there's more to do in Santa Monica, in general.

The site of the Fountain Of Youth in St. Augustine, Florida, has a great deal of historical significance because it was the site of the first Spanish settlement in the New World after explorer Pedro Menéndez de Avilés founded a community there.

But as an experience, any fort closer to home that offers cannon firing demonstrations by employees in period costumes is essentially the same to casual tourists as the Fountain Of Youth Archaeological Park. The only real difference is that visitors drink a little water from a sadly non-magical spring afterward.

The biggest gripe the average SeaWorld visitor is likely to have concerns the steep ticket prices and even more exorbitant costs of the food inside. But while discounts on tickets are sometimes available when ordering through the park's website, all the discounts in the world wouldn't allay some concerns for potential visitors. Because those who have seen the documentary Blackfish will have a hard time reconciling the harmful effects captivity has on the captive orcas depicted in the film with the supposedly joyous experiences with them at SeaWorld itself. As such, they're not likely to want to support the park.

There's no place on Earth quite like the Grand Canyon, and its beauty and impressive size are definitely worthy of its status as one of the Natural Wonders Of The World. But while the ability to walk directly above them might sound game-changing, it might just turn out disappointing.

Obviously, anyone who's afraid of heights will have a more miserable time on the Skywalk than they would while observing the canyon from a safe distance. Aside from that, it costs at least $90 to walk this brief track, and visitors aren't allowed to bring phones or cameras on the Skywalk.

This is true of both the falls under Canadian jurisdiction and the city on their side of them. While the American Falls are large and light up at night, the same is also true of Canada's larger and more distinct Horseshoe Falls in the background.

And as easy as it is to see why someone may find the Vegas-like vibe of Niagara Falls, Ontario, tacky, it makes for a better vacation spot than the struggling city of Niagara Falls, New York. So those who must see the falls are advised to cross the border.

This is not to say that someone should avoid checking out the Statue Of Liberty entirely during a visit to New York City. Far from it, it's a wondrous sight to see in person. However, those who care more about seeing it than going inside of it are not advised to take the ferry to Liberty Island.

Instead, visitors can get a perfectly good view of the statue by taking a different ferry to Staten Island. That boat is free to ride and provides a picture-perfect view of France's most iconic gift.

Although the ambitious sculpture carved into South Dakota's Mount Rushmore is rightfully a powerful sight to Americans and a wonder of patriotic art, it can also be a little underwhelming in person.

It's worth seeing for those who happen to be in the area, but those who are considering a special trip for it should reconsider. After all, those who aren't preparing to stare at it for more than a few minutes will be disappointed to learn that there isn't anything else in the area besides the scenic Black Hills. It's also smaller than it tends to look in photos.

For those who want to take in the views of Seattle from the Space Needle, the best way to do so used to involve visiting the revolving restaurant about 500 feet up the tower. However, that restaurant was closed in 2017 and there has yet to be a full-service replacement in the structure. The closest to it is a bar called The Loupe Lounge.

So aside from souvenirs and that bar, the only reason to pay is to catch views that can also been seen for free at Kerry Park. And as shown here, the park's view actually includes the Space Needle.

It may look like fun in the Sun in photos like this, but it's worth noting that Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, is commonly called "Dirty Myrtle" by disgruntled tourists. That reputation is largely based on pollution around the beach itself, but the area's hotels are also notorious for their lack of cleanliness, much to the local government's chagrin.

But as is the case for any popular beach, another drawback of Myrtle Beach concerns the huge crowds it attracts. Depending on when the visit takes place, nearby Litchfield Beach may be a better option.

The Walt Disney World park is a truly magical place for children, and it clearly means a lot to the nation's self-described "Disney adults." However, how true that is can depend a lot on when the park is visited.

After all, a summer vacation in Disney World not only exposes visitors to the worst of the Florida heat but also ensures that heat will weigh on them more when they're standing in lines for up to an hour apiece. Going in, say, November ensures the kids will meet all the characters and ride all the rides they want while experiencing much more pleasant temperatures.

The Salem Witch Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, features an audiovisual display with special lights and mannequins that gives a moderate rundown of the town's infamous witch hunts in the late 17th Century. The museum's tour also includes some information about modern Wiccans that clears up some common misconceptions about the belief system. Although this makes for a decent enough visit, MassLive reported that a USA Today poll found the Salem Witch Museum to be the second biggest tourist trap in America. Those who voted for it were disappointed by the lack of historical artifacts and thought the museum lacked sufficient depth. It's better as a way to kill a few hours during a Boston trip than as a vacation in and of itself.

While attractions like this Trojan horse go-kart track make this Wisconsin Dells theme park stand out, some visitors have characterized the park as overrated due to how uncomfortable and needlessly bumpy its rides are.

Considering that the pools, lazy rivers, and hot tubs seem to be the attractions people like the best, it's possible that Mt. Olympus Park overextended itself beyond the purview of the traditional water park. In any case, it seems it's only worth visiting for those who already live in Wisconsin.

As the name would suggest, Clearwater Beach is, by all accounts, a lovely beach. With that in mind, it's not necessarily surprising that it would attract the same massive crowds as any of America's other popular beaches.

However, what is odd is that this specific town would attract all of the overcrowding because it's hardly the only beach in the area with these idyllic conditions. By some accounts, one could drive south for just ten more minutes after reaching Clearwater and find an identical beach that isn't being used by everyone and their mother.

Since it's owned by Chip and Joanna Gaines from the hit HGTV show Fixer Upper, Magnolia Market at the Silos in Waco, Texas, has seen a surge in popularity in recent years. It also hasn't hurt that the complex has been redesigned to look more aesthetically pleasing since its new owners took over. However, that doesn't mean it's necessarily worth going to Waco just to visit the market. This is especially true for those traveling on a budget, as the Magnolia Market's items are reputed to be overpriced. That's also true of the food options, which were described as" limited" to boot.

When it was first built in 1939, New York City's Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum's design was revolutionary, and the collection of art it has amassed in the years since is quite enviable. So those who are dying to see the works of Picasso, Manet, and Degas in the flesh will likely still find the place worth visiting.

But those who are seeking an overall gallery experience rather than hunting for specific pieces will quickly find that the Guggenheim has long been outclassed in that department by both The Museum of Modern Art and The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

New Orleans is a fun city with a rich cultural history and some world-class jazz, but many tourists seem to be under the impression that they can get the whole experience just by visiting Bourbon Street. But while the French Quarter's most famous street is a happening place during the annual Mardi Gras festival, it's a little disappointing throughout the rest of the year.

Even those who can somehow avoid being accosted by their inebriated peers will find that there's not much Bourbon Street has to offer besides tacky bars with overpriced drinks. It doesn't help that it's often dirty, smelling of urine, and dotted with broken glass.

While the Washington Monument is an iconic part of Washington D.C.'s unique skyline, it's also just one such landmark in a city that's packed with them. And while it offers a grand view of the city, most of the American capital's structures are low enough to the ground that such a view isn't necessarily needed.

That aside, the Monument's policies require guests to turn up surprisingly early in the morning only for them to fight over the eight windows at the top of the structure. Simply put, there are better ways to spend your day in D.C.

Although it's been under construction since the late 1940s, the Crazy Horse monument that's taking shape in South Dakota's Black Hills isn't expected even to have arms until the 2030s. And there's no timeline on when the entire project is supposed to be completed.

Nonetheless, visitors to the unfinished monument have reported that tickets to see it are overpriced and that the facilities around the monument are a tourist trap. Those seeking to learn more about the legendary Lakota chief Crazy Horse and Native American history at large would likely be more satisfied with an unaffiliated guided tour.
