After moving to DC, I made a visit to Georgetown. I was smitten. I began writing tours of this place, even before I became a guide. So come with me to glorious historical Georgetown and explore the rich history, unique culture, architectural detail of the beautiful homes and diverse people of this glorious place. There is a reason Mercedes Benz chose N Street in Georgetown for one of its commercials. We will take in this historical streets 19th and early 20th century homes and enjoy the stories behind each. We will walk the quaint streets of Georgetown to visit other "famous" homes, including some of the those inhabited by the community's most famous residents, John & Jackie Kennedy. But we will also get to know some less famous residents, including the African Americans who built and thrived in this community. If interested, I can make reservations at a local historical restaurant for you to enjoy.
Our itinerary will include: - Intro to Georgetown: Brief History & Architecture - Old Stone House, a Revolutionary house - N Street Historical Homes - Mt. Zion Cemetery for an Underground Railroad site - Other Notable Homes, including Kennedy homes, and the fascinating role a "press house" played in history - Surprise Site if time All my tours can be customized, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions - Martins Tavern - Option (Pending) Lunch Destination

This is a walking tour. Georgetown's sidewalks are uneven brick so please wear comfortable shoes. So that I can better time your tour, I do need to know if any are slow walkers and/or have trouble on uneven terrain (tree roots, small dips in grassy areas). If I know this prior to your tour, I can make accomodations.
