Incontra la tua guida fuori dal bar preferito locale, Baked & Wired.
Descrizione
Fondata cinquant'anni prima della capitale, Georgetown iniziò come una grintosa città portuale sulle rive del fiume Potomac, descritta da Abigail Adams come un "piccolo buco sporco". Nonostante il suo modesto inizio, Georgetown è oggi sede di palazzi sfarzosi, cimiteri eleganti, chiese signorili e un'università di livello mondiale. Esploreremo i punti salienti e i segreti del quartiere più esclusivo di DC, discutendo di architettura, storia, scandalo e altro ancora. Entro la fine del tour, vedremo la piena trasformazione di Georgetown in questa storia di stracci e ricchezze.

Great tour guide!
The Georgetown Architectural Tour with Christine was great. She is really knowledgeable and we learned so much. We saw a variety of different architecture designs and enjoyed seeing so many beautiful homes. The tour was just the right amount of time and I highly recommend it.

Take this tour! It’s wonderful!
My spouse and I enjoy taking guided tours in every city we visit. We seek out tours that tell a city’s/neighborhood’s story through architecture, culture, and history. This tour was exactly what we were hoping for. Our guide Brian was friendly and engaging and did an extraordinary job telling Georgetown’s complex story in a way that was very accessible, entertaining, and thoughtful. We feel like we walked away from this tour with a better understanding and appreciation for one of this country’s most fascinating neighborhoods. We plan on visiting DC again and will certainly take more of your tours! Thank you!

Brian was excellent
We had a great time touring Georgetown and learning about its deep history. Brian was an excellent guide as he has extensive knowledge of the area, answered all of our questions, and told great stories. I’m so glad we did the guided tour as we would not have had near the great experience without it.

Couple from Philly loves Brians Georgetown tour
Brian was incredible. Very knowledgeable on the history of Georgetown and DC in general. This 2 hour tour was exactly what we needed for a perfect Sunday fall morning. Kennedys, Georgetown U, Alex. Bell lab, Tranformers and Exorcist. What else coukd one ask for? I recommend this tour for anyone that can walk and especially for young people middle school age and up to learn about the formation of DC, the C&O canal

What a wonderful way to see Georgetown!
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour of Georgetown. It was so interesting exploring the area for two-and-a-half hours, seeing and learning about its many historic properties. My guide, Christine, was excellent; her knowledge of Georgetown's architecture and fascinating history was impressive, and she made this such an enjoyable afternoon. Based on this experience, I hope to have the opportunity to see more of DC with DC Design Tours.

We hope so too! Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review!
