On this leisurely walking tour, you will be immersed in one of the most historically significant parts of Washington D.C., known for its wealth of historic buildings and graceful way of life. Delve into Georgetown's colonial and Federal period history with a private guide, who will bring to life stories of long-standing traditions, high society and world politics. Home to world-class shopping, rich history, five-star restaurants and one of the world’s best universities – in fact, the university for anyone looking to enter a career in Washington – Georgetown is a neighbourhood that simply cannot be missed!
Stroll the cobblestone pavements and admire the historic C&O Canal, and walk along tree-lined streets past some of the city’s most famous homes – including John F and Jackie Kennedy, inventor Alexander Graham Bell, Hollywood actress Elizabeth Taylor, and chef Julia Child.
Learn about the neighbourhood’s post-Civil War flourishing African American community, its early 20th-century slump and its ascent to the it-place of DC in the 1950s.
Also learn about young JFK and see the tavern booth where he proposed to Jacqueline Bouvier.
