Make sure you book in advance. It is also possible to request a shuttle service that takes you from the west side of the Capitol to the entrance of the Visitor Center.
Service animals are welcome, and wheelchairs are available in the building. There are also other services for people who are blind or deaf, such as audio description and sign language interpretation.
