Meet us and we will give you a private tour and a fantastic taste of the National Museum of African American History and Culture
The National Museum of African American History and Culture is the only national museum devoted exclusively to the documentation of African American life, history, and culture. It was established by an Act of Congress in 2003 following decades of efforts to promote and highlight the contributions of African Americans. The museum has collected more than 36,000 artifacts.
Your tour guide will focus on important highlights to keep your group engaged and stop them from becoming overwhelmed and losing interest. During the tour, see how the stories, histories, and cultures of African Americans are shaped and informed by global influences.
This is not an official Smithsonian tour. Customers booking this tour are paying for UTG Experience's services and perspective, which is independent of and may not represent the views of the Smithsonian.

Nur Ali was very nice and knowledgeable in the history of the African American History Museum. There were so many things that we had questions about, and Nur answered all of them. We enjoyed the tour, and if you need a tour guide, we recommend Nur. Great person.

This tour was misleading!!! I paid $350 dollars and the tour guide wasn’t very informative and withheld more personal conversations. I called and spoke to someone about this tour before I paid and I was informed I was meeting up and being transported to all the monuments listed 20 mins each and end at the African Museum for a hour for a tour inside however that did not happen whatsoever. My sons and I otherwise was forced to walk in 90 degree weather only to see two monuments the White House and the Washington Monument. I was told I would receive an $250 dollar refund in regards to this from Nar and Michael by this week. I’m very upset about this tour very disappointed and mislead. This almost ruined my vacation with my kids

Nur was an excellent guide. He was engaging and knowledgeable. Took the time task our children questions. He was also very enthusiastic. We learned a lot. Definitely worth the money.

Our group of 8 family members from Los Angeles and Maryland, took a private tour of the wonderful Washington DC African American Museum of History and Culture on June 30, 2023.
Our guide, Nur, was delightful! He arrived right on time, was friendly and down to earth, and knew the Museum and African American history backward and forwards. He had a clear agenda in mind to give us a rich experience in a limited time.
Nur was sensitive to the fact that we had 12 year-olds in the group and made sure in advance that it was fine with their parents for him to discuss certain sensitive matters, In addition to being very knowledgeable, Nur was very funny and accommodating to everyone's needs. I highly recommend him as a guide.

We showed up two minutes late instead of 15 minutes early due to getting lost, could not locate our tour guide in front, could not get help or suggestions from museum employees, employees acted as if they could not be bothered even at the welcome desk, after figuring out how to scan and load our own free tickets and waiting in line to get in, then noticed there was two entrances, went back outside to look for tour guide on that “front”. Then tried to call Viator, no option # fit our situation, no person to talk to, but noticed a call on my phone at that time that went to voice messages due to spam blocker, called back, received message the phone was currently unavailable. Gave up and went inside to tour by ourselves. Tried the number again after using the restroom inside, now being 30 minutes later, tour guide answered said she was already home stating she only had to wait until 10 minutes after scheduled time. I asked how we were suppose to find her and her response was she called and texted me. She had a couple minutes before we arrived, but I was rushing to get there, not checking my text messages. I was looking around expecting to see a sign, hat or T-shirt to alert me…the old fashion way to find your tour group.

Our guide Nur was outstanding! He provides one of the most powerful museum experiences and I cannot recommend this tour more. Nur was insightful and gave real work experiences that helped make for a special day.

I thought my guide would have talked more about the history within the museum. The private tour was a waste of time in eyes. I could have just walked the museum myself. There was nothing special the guide did for my experience.

We toured the Museum with Dr Koura Gibson on Sunday, Feb 19, 2023. The tour was exactly as described and then some! It was a highlight of our 5-day DC vacation. We wouldn't have gotten even close to as much out of the Museum without her guidance. I cannot recommend Dr Gibson/this tour more highly. Thank you!!
