Item Description

Two complimentary passes to the International Spy Museum in DC.  Learn what it takes to be a spy!  Learn about the authentic tradecraft that has been used throughout time and around the world. Hear spies, in their own words, describe the challenges and the "game" of spying.

Examine over 200 spy gadgets, weapons, bugs, cameras, vehicles, and technologies. Learn about microdots and invisible ink, buttonhole cameras and submarine recording systems, bugs of all sizes and kinds, and ingenious disguise techniques developed by Hollywood for the CIA. Uncover the stories behind the spycraft, why and how these artifacts were developed, and by which side. Survey over 50 years of spy technology, developed by agencies from the OSS to the KGB, and still in use today.

Professional intelligence training, no matter the country or the era, focuses on developing innate skills, possessed to some degree by all of us. But in spies, these abilities must be honed to an extraordinary degree, to insure success, personal safety and expected results. Test your skills of observation, analysis, and surveillance at interactive stations. Can you do it? Do you have what it takes to be a spy?
