There are no scheduled tours, but there are two very good museums you can visit for free. Take the exit off I-14 towards the main gate (called TJ Mills gate). Stay in the far right lane. The Visitors Center is off to the right (after you go under an over-pass). The Visitors Center is called the Marvin Leath Visitors Center (Phone: (254) 287-9909. Park and walk into the Visitor’s Center. Take a number and have a seat in the waiting area. (Usually a 30 minute wait.) One your number is called, show your driver’s license, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance. (Also, know your license plate number.) When they ask the purpose of your visit, tell them to visit the two museums on-post. They will issue a Temporary Pass. Ask for a map of the post. Now drive down to the main gate. The guard will stop your vehicle and look at your driver license(s) for all occupants in the vehicle and your Temporary Pass. After you clear the gate, you are free to drive around the post.
