Blast from the past - It was an awesome experience. I learned so much. From George Washington and his wife to modern day. I can’t say I have a favorite part it was all fun and educational.

Good tour but much longer than promised - Interesting and fun but lasted 2 hours and 40 minutes! Guide very informative but not conscious of time or fatigue of his audience. If kept to promised time would have been fine.

Good but not wonderful - Tour guide Tom knowledgeable but kept us in very hot sun nearly 1/2 hour at beginning until half the tour moved into the shade. Had funny stories. Would have preferred more meat and less fluff but it was good and we got a lot of good information.
