Scheduling Private Walking Tours Washington DC

By Donna Burns


The United States capital attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors annually. However, even those who live near by often wish they spent more time there. One problem is that the principal places of interest are often crowded with tourists and school groups. It's also stressful driving into the city, especially at the dreaded rush hour. Something that has become more and more popular for these and other reasons are private walking tours Washington DC.

It's easy to do an internet booking for your family or group. Going online and entering all requested data is the most cost-effective way, too. There are set tours and times that also cost less, as well as discounts for back-to-back tours or larger groups. This is a great way to build bonds among families or employees.

The professional, licensed companies in Washington DC are happy to work with you to create a trip customized to your interests and purposes. Each group is led by a trained, professional guide chosen for enthusiasm, knowledge, and congeniality. This is one of the most mentioned aspects on customer reviews; people love their guides.

You might not have thought of seeing the city at night. All the monuments are illuminated, and the whole impact of the Mall, the Reflecting Pool, and the Tidal Basin is heightened. This also is a time when most of the crowds, street vendors, and traffic has gone home for the day. You will feel like the city is yours.

There are ghost tours of Georgetown, evidently a great place to linger for a century or two, and many stately, haunted houses and buildings. This is just one of the great ideas the companies have come up with, or they can implement your own agenda. This way your excursion can be tailored to any age group, any degree of physical fitness, and any special interests.

Seeing the district on foot lets people really appreciate the history, character, and beauty of this government center, rich in culture and distinction. There are many sights that most never see, since they are not mentioned in history books or visible from the main streets. Even the residential areas are lively and fun to see, full of beautiful architecture and enlivened by embassies, museums, and universities.

Online bookings must be made at least three days in advance. Once booked, there can be no alterations to the plan. You can meet a bus or van at the airport or any hotel. Check the FAQs on each company website for more information, answers, and ideas. Customer reviews on travel sites are good ways to narrow your focus.

A private guided tour is about as good as you can get when visiting a place you don't know intimately. It can be a great educational experience for your kids. The Lincoln Assassination Tour is one of the most popular. There is so much to see that this could become a family or employee-team-building tradition.
