Your guide isn't just touring DC, he lives here. As a professional historian and DC resident, he connects the Capitol, Supreme Court, and Library of Congress to the city you're actually standing in, not a script recited from memory. Inside the Capitol, a docent leads you through the Rotunda, Statuary Hall, and the Crypt, while your guide adds the context that makes those rooms matter. Add in tickets handled for you and a small group capped at 16, and you get a history tour built around depth and access, not just checking landmarks off a list.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Your guide will meet you in front of the Shakespeare Folger Library located at the corner of East Capitol St NE and 2nd St SE before heading toward the Capitol building. Before your tour, your guide will connect with you and provide additional details such as the color cap they’re wearing.

We go inside the Capitol. Tickets are already sorted, so there's no reservation scramble and no wondering if you'll get in. Inside, you will be guided by a Capitol docent, who leads you through the Rotunda, Statuary Hall, and the Crypt.
