Pararemos em frente ao Gadsby's e falaremos sobre sua conexão com os primeiros presidentes americanos. Veremos também o famoso poço de gelo!
A história da famosa Spite House será contada. Veremos a famosa casa e garantiremos que os convidados possam tirar fotos!

Uma das clássicas ruas de paralelepípedos de Alexandria. História divertida e fascinante para incluir um dos maiores incêndios de Alexandria. Discutiremos por que é chamado de Captain's Row. Essa será a última parada do passeio e vamos tirar fotos e ficar perto de ótimos restaurantes!

Our tour of Alexandria was charming, fun, and fascinating. Jeff was an excellent tour guide, keeping us in the shade, taking us through nearly-tangible historic events as we walked the same streets as Revolutionary patriots, the Founding Fathers, and Civil War soldiers. Old Town contains layers and layers of human experience; Jeff brought it to life with historic photos, fun trivia, terrific stories, and a stroll along the lovely streets of the city.
I am really glad to hear you had fun on your tour with Jeff. Jeff does a great job keeping the tours fun and informative and it is awesome to hear that this experience lived up to expectations. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I hope you will come back again in the future!

How lovely & knowledgeable our tour guide was❣️Being a Virginian, I thought I knew the historical facts about the area. Nevertheless, this local guide brought history to life with her accounts. Showing us visuals along the route added to our understanding of what a significant part the splendid Old Town Alexandria area played in history.
