Great tour! Book it!! - Amanda was AMAZING!! Her knowledge of the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum was mind boggling. She was not only knowledgeable about what is currently being displayed but what the remodel consists of. She also keeps up with current events and integrated that knowledge into the tour, very impressive!! Highly recommend this tour!
