Tour description

Want to walk amongst presidents?
We won't quite be able to walk amongst living presidents, of course, but we can do a roughly 2-hour walking tour of monuments and memorials in DC.

This includes monuments to Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Thomas Jefferson, as well as war memorials for World War 2, Vietnam, and Korea.

We'll start at the II World War Memorial and end with a view of the Jefferson Memorial.

Ella es muy buena guía. Y como mencionó que habitualmente recibe grupos de más de 20 personas (como ocurrió el día que fui) sugeriría que use algún mecanismo para que sea más fácil escucharla, como un micrófono o estás pequeñas radios con audífonos que usan otros guías de guruwalk

I love the walking tours and as always, this was also a great tour. Interesting stories and beautiful monuments. Lisa told personal anecdotes and stories and gave us enough time to also walk around the monuments on our own. I personally also enjoyed that she view some historical figures and aspects critical as well. Thanks for the great tour.
