October is the Best Time to Tour Kykuit
A tour of Kykuit is high on What To Do’s Bucket List anytime. But October is the best time of year to do it because of the fall colors and because Kykuit is not air conditioned.
The Classic Tour (fabulous) includes the main floor of the house, the art galleries with the famous Picasso tapestries, the inner garden, golf room and Coach Barn – featuring the Rockefeller’s collection of horse drawn carriages and a half century of cars. From a 1907 Ford Model 8 to a 1966 Datsun 1600 Roadster. There’s a Crane Simplex Tourer from 1918, a 1939 Cadillac and a Chrysler limousine with Governor plates from 1959.
The Grand Tour is the only one that will take you to the second floor of the house.
Tours are available Friday to Sunday and Federal Holidays from May to the early part of November.
