The whole tour was fabulous until one of my sisters had a medical episode at Mt Vernon. Christopher was so helpful. He found someone to get her checked out in first aid and someone with a golf cart to take us back to his vehicle.

Christopher is wonderful! This is the second tour we did with him in our ten day vacation. Christopher has a love of history, learning those interesting facts and then sharing those with others. He took us to Arlington National Cemetery and had many interesting facts and stories. The tour included going into the Arlington Home and Memorial. Christopher had the timing just right for us to see the changing of the guards at the cemetery. After leaving the cemetery, Christopher took us on a tour of the town of Alexandria. There were so many interesting facts that he shared. What a historical town. He then took us to Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington. You can tell that Christopher loves visiting here and told us great stories about this location. I would highly recommend him for your future tours. He will even customize any DC tour to whatever you need. Christopher even dropped us off at our next museum location for the day. You will be very happy after you experience a day with Christopher.
