I would only recommend if it if you purchase the regular tour first and have the time. Its discounted if you bundle them but may not be worth it if you just do that. The main tour shows you most of the big rooms. The explore more you see more rooms that were damaged during the earthquake and never really quite fixed up again by Sarah. On the explore more you go into the basement and you do get to go into the one witches cap. I guess if not seeing any of these things appeals to you and you just want to see the main features, then probably not worth it.
