Evening view of the memorials and the historical sites was spectacular, especially all the cherry blossoms fully blooming :) After the tour, our hotel was only a block away so we planned to just walk back to the hotel, but the guide offered to dropped us off at the hotel we stayed. It was very sweet of him when he didn't need to do so. Overall, we had a blast and highly recommend this tour :)

Georgetown, Washington DC - My handsome husband surprised me with Saturday night tickets for the…read moreGeorgetown Ghost Tour. We are local to the area and love history, spooky stories and corny jokes so for us this is a fun date :-). The tour began at the Old Stone House where we were checked in and divided into two groups of about 18 people each. Everyone in our group was from out of town except us and our amazing tour guide Sonia. She effortlessly led us from site to site while allowing time for questions and photos. She also made sure our group stayed together and safely crossed the streets. I was concerned that it would be hard to hear given the traffic and Saturday night usual cacophony that is Georgetown but that generally wasn't a problem. We didn't see any ghosts - DRAT! But we did have fun and learn some history along the way. We would recommend this tour company and this particular tour.

Our tour guide, Paul, was very knowledgeable and added a lot of great humor to our tour. The caverns themselves are beautiful. We learned so much beyond the typical stalactite and stalagmite information kids hear in elementary school. Those who are taller than about 5'4" or 5'5" will need to duck a bit while moving through the caverns to avoid hitting your head on the formations. It's also very chilly, so be sure to bring a sweater or hoodie with you. The last time I visited Crystal Grottoes was in elementary school for a field trip, so it was great to revisit after so many years.

She gave us a detailed tour of the White House and several monuments. When you book, check out the option of pick up and drop off at your hotel. Zanna rolled up on time and dropped us off after zipping around town. She chatted with both of my kids (8 and 10) for 2 hours. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. To the owners of this company, this young lady deserves a raise or a fat bonus! Thank you for the memorable tour Zanna, core memories were definitely made and Rhys says hi! :)

You do plan to have ghosts on your ghost tour? Hello! Hello! Haha just a little Jurassic park humor…read morefor everyone. But seriously, you don't want to see ghosts on a ghost tour. It would be very frightening. Part of you would be relieved to know that you can visit your loved ones from the beyond, but you would be unable to defend yourself against their ethereal beings. Your hands would go right through them! They would then be a liberty to commit hijinx! Luckily there were no ghosts on this ghost tour, except the memories of times passed. And what memories they were! A vibrant city full of lives long snuffed out by Father Time and misfortune. They laughed, they loved, they toured! As we are now so once were they! Huzzah!

Paul knows his stuff and is so willing to share that knowledge. Tip: Each person should pack their own ziplock bags & drinks in a small backpack and carry it with them. We were not all together most of the time so having 1 backpack for family wasn't convenient. Also, pretty obvious, but a backpack is much more sensible than a bag with handles when you are searching for shark teeth and fossils and need to use your hands. It was a great day & it really sparked some curiosity about not only the shark teeth but also the geology and oceanography!
