We enjoyed being outdoors and hearing the stories of how Branson was started! We felt like it was almost a commercial for its evening dinner and show. We also assumed that we would be going up in the tower since the description said we were going to see it. The best part of the tour was going on the suspension bridge which was optional. We could have walked to the cabins without a tour wagon. Other than that we enjoyed it!
