Great tour!
Our guide Maribeth has been in DC for decades! She is very kind, intelligent and knowledgeable! She was able to skillfully maneuver around the crowds in order to get us in the best possible position at all of the places that we visited. Without her we would have been in line for long periods and not seen nearly as much. Maribeth made it an adventure! It was fun and worthwhile!

Bess was an amazing guide. She showed us everything we wanted to see, answered all our questions and let my boyfriend stop and take as many pictures as he wanted (which was a lot). I would do it again!

Donna is an excellent tour guide answering our questions. Well versed in capital history she helped us understand how it was determined, secured, defended and maintained. The Supreme Court was closed, but even so she was able to teach us more about its history from its plaza. Excellent time.
