Hello everyone! My name is Christopher and I am what you would call a native Washingtonian! I was born and raised in Washington DC. I know this city like I know the back of my hand. I know my city's history, and I know how to navigate it. Every one of my tours are designed to allow you to just enjoy the city, and leave all the planning up to me. Every tour can be customized. We can see the inside of the United States Capitol Building or Abraham Lincoln. Maybe we can go to Arlington Cemetery to see the changing of the guard. Maybe George Washington's house, Mount Vernon, is something you're interested in. Whatever your pleasure, I GUARANTEE a great time with me! I have a passion for history, and a passion for showing people Washington DC. I do this full time all year long, rain or shine, and it is NOTHING else I would rather be doing. Let me show you Washington DC in all its splendor! Licensed Tour Guide in Washington DC
