DC is the city of presidents, and this is the tour that gives you the most POTUS for your buck. This is a great way to see some of DC's most beautiful neighborhoods, away from the big tourist crowds on the National Mall. If you love history, trivia, politics or walking, it's a great way to enjoy the nation's capital.
Your guide is a former journalist and stand-up comedian obsessed with the presidents -- Chris White has been to almost every presidential birthplace, home and grave in the country.
This tour usually departs at 10 a.m. or 2 p.m. Please check the start time before completing your booking.
