About this tour
Discover the charm and history of Old Town Alexandria, one of the nation’s most beautifully preserved colonial cities just outside Washington, DC.
Step inside the legendary Gadsby's Tavern - once the social hub of colonial Alexandria - where George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams dined, danced, and debated.
Stroll along cobblestone streets lined with 18th-century architecture as your expert local guide brings centuries of American history vividly to life.
Explore Christ Church (Interior Visit When Open) - originally built in 1773 - whenever services or private events are not in session.
From George Washington’s favorite tavern to a church that’s hosted presidents, patriots, and even royalty, this walking tour takes you beyond the monuments and into the real stories that helped shape a nation.
