Claudia is the one! - Claudia was the absolute perfect guide for our tour. We were there on a frigid Wednesday and blessed to be the only group with her. She was amazing. Her knowledge of the Archives was unbelievable. Her kindness was sincere. We were ready to adopt her and go see all the sights in DC. Thank you ma’am. God bless you and your family!

Great stories and great tour - Skye is a fantastic tour guide. She is deeply knowledgeable about American history and did a masterful job helping us navigate the Archives and making the history come alive. We were traveling with our teenagers and she managed to get them engaged in the museum in a way that exceeded our expectations. She narrated the tour with colorful anecdotes and "back stories" about the history that were both helpful to provide context but also engaging and entertaining. Highly recommend touring with Skye!

Blew our expectations out of the water! - I don't typically book tours, so who knew--Unscripted was the BEST way to learn about America's history. Andrew delivered an incredibly engaging, colorful experience where we learned so much about lesser-known and behind-the-scenes stories, and had a blast the whole time. He took us right to the highlights and artifacts we could have easily missed on our own. This was completely different and way better than alllll the repetitive U.S. history classes I used to have in school. If the idea of booking a tour is out of your comfort zone or not something that seems exciting to you, think again--you will NOT regret booking with Andrew and Unscripted! I would definitely choose them for my next tour, and I recommend them without reservation!

When cultures collide! - Why was American history so fun to explore with a Scottish tour guide?? Add in the British visitor that went too, and it was a blast!

A short and informative tour - Absolutely wonderful Tour! I learned so much in an hour and it really made all the details come to life. Since it was a small group we were able to ask lots of questions and our tour guide was very knowledgeable and knew all the answers.

Great visit - We had a great visit of the National Archives. We skipped the line and went directly to the rotunda where our guide explained the history of the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. She also showed us and explained the paintings in the Rotunda, the NATO treaty, and the Magna Carta. Everything went perfectly and the tour was right about an hour long.
