And for a more focused trip, the museum's Web site provides downloadable "Family Adventure" self-guided tours that cover anything from scavenger hunts through the museum to biodiversity and conservation.
While the tours are self-guided, in reality the members of each shuttle move through the mansion more or less as a group, because each shuttle is well staggered.
However, if you have a hint of Robinson Crusoe in your genes, a weeklong self-guided kayaking trip is a magical way to experience the area ( guided tours are also available).
