Unless there has been a recent change, there is no advance booking of home tours, either by phone or online. You must show up in person at the visitor center to get tickets and reserve a time slot. Arrive a few minutes before opening during the off season. HOWEVER..... It is completely possible, even likely, that because of the COVID-19 situation that NO home tours are being offered. Be prepared for disappointment. You might have even cancelled your vacation already.

Hi! I was last November. I was the only one participant of the walking tour, so we were two women and I felt safe. Yes, you see some homeless people around, but the tour guide (sorry forgot her name 😞) was keeping very calm and ignoring them , so nobody bothered us. I highly reccomend taking this tour, gave me sich much better understanding how big MLK was, as a man, as an activist.

As early as possible, Sunday can be very busy and tours can book rather quickly. It closes at 5pm

I don´t know ... Can ask the free museum

No, not on the site outside of the grounds yes

No, you don’t have to book a tour. You can visit these places on your own.

We arrived at 11am and we were told that the next available tour was at 3:30 that afternoon.

Hi, to be on the safe side, I would like to recommend the website 'nps.gov/malu' to you. Last week everything was open (King Center, Church, Birth Home...) - but with the exeption to the 'Visitor Center' on Peace Plaza! This is closed for renovation. Currently, there is only a small exhibition at the 'Historic Fire Station No. 6' which I liked and where you can book the guided tour to the birth home (but maybe it's better to book in advance). Best from Hamburg, 'Wanderlust'
