RCA B and Museum - Lots of history from RCA, take pictures and enjoy the experience. Great for families both very young as well as adults. For the museum, don’t spent too long on the 2nd floor because you will be tired by the time you reach the first floor.
Our tour guide Ron was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and very nice. He also helped with places to visit on our stay.
