What to expect

Explore the highlights of DC's most exclusive neighborhood!

Established fifty years before Washington DC, Georgetown got its start as a gritty port city on the banks of the Potomac River. Despite its modest beginnings, it eventually came to have the most expensive and desirable property in the District. The town is now home to palatial mansions, elegant cemeteries, stately churches, and a world-class University.

During this tour, you will walk along the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal and the Pomander Walk. Pass by the picturesque Old Stone House and Christ Episcopal Church before heading to Newton D. Baker House and Georgetown Female Seminary, founded by Miss Lydia English in 1826. Find out more about the Volta Laboratory and Georgetown University from your knowledgeable guide and see the steps features in the film The Exorcist. Conclude your tour by relaxing in front of the Georgetown waterfront.
