WALKING BACKWARD TOURS

Explore DC's Presidential Past

 

 

Washington, D.C., is a great city for walking, AND a great city for presidential history. Your guide Chris White (a former stand-up comedian!) will take you around some of the coolest neighborhoods, to sites special to D.C.'s most famous residents, the U.S. presidents. These are the places where they lived, partied and got shot at -- sometimes on their way to the top, sometimes while in office, and sometimes in their final years. We currently offer three different tours - scroll down to get info on each route!
