It is an interesting house and like so much of FLW's work, ahead of it's time.

Certainly worth the trip whenever you’re in the Chicago area. Impossible not to appreciate the beauty and influence of Frank Lloyd Wright’s own home and studio on the design world. Make sure this is part of your itinerary next time you’re near Lake Michigan! Highly recommend. Helpful staff also.

Fun tour and very informative. Frank Lloyd Wright has done a lot in Arizona as well and it was nice to see the difference. The tour guide was friendly! I'd recommend getting tickets ahead of time, we didn't but only had to wait about an hour and just explored the area.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Yes. It was very hot the day I went, so we only ventured outside for a moment. It was very comfortable inside.

Is there a place to store luggage while on the tour?

Ann Bird | Oct 12, 2018
kristin lanett | Oct 12, 2018

They have lockers you can store jackets and maybe small bags...but nothing for large pieces. Though you may want to call and ask. I know they have lockers because you start the tour right next to them and they offer you one

Hi. Can i buy my ticket in the museum?

Cecilia Báez | Oct 11, 2020

I went with a friend in the middle of the day on a Monday and there was only one other person on our tour. That was great to allow more opportunities for questions, etc. We bought at the museum with no issues. If you do wait to buy at the museum and find that you have to wait for the next tour, there are several Frank Lloyd Wright homes within a few block radius - as well as Unity Temple - that you can walk around and see.

We are flying from Perth WAustralia on the 3rd of August We wont know how jetlagged we will be Do we need to pre book a tour for the 4th or can we just rock up or would we be able to transfer to another time if we booked Thanks Brenda

You can just show on that day, see if any one available. Only 2hrs for Frank Lloyd's home & Studio. Might as well tour Unity Temple. Save money walking around Oak Park on your own to see Frank Lloyd Wright houses in neighborhoods.

How to get there from downtown Chicago and what are the hours or days to visit? Thank you

Silvia Sanchez | Oct 12, 2019
Danielle Hillas | Oct 12, 2019

I used Google translate hopefully it makes sense! Wright's home and studio are open for visits from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM every day. Sometimes, the tours are complete, so it is better to buy on the website a few days before. The website is flwright.org. Here are the instructions for your website: From Downtown Chicago (CTA) Take the Green Line L train westbound to the Oak Park stop. Walk under the tracks and head north 5 blocks on Oak Park Avenue to Chicago Avenue. Turn left (west) and walk 3 blocks to Home and Studio. 15-20 minutes on foot. The trains leave approximately every twenty minutes. From downtown Chicago (Metra) Take the Union Pacific West line train at Metra station (Clinton and Madison streets). Exit at the Oak Park stop. Walk north 5 blocks on Marion Street to Chicago Avenue. Turn right and walk one block to Home and Studio. 15-20 minutes on foot.
