A local historian leads guests through Dupont Circle and Embassy Row, sharing the drama behind the self-made millionaires who built their way into Washington society, along with the rigid social rules that could make or break a family's reputation overnight. It is a tour for anyone who loves a good story as much as a beautiful building.
The pace stays relaxed and conversational, more like a stroll with a well-read friend than a formal lecture, with plenty of room to soak in the architecture along the way. Curious travelers who want to know the people behind the postcard-perfect mansions of the capital will find a lot to love here.

Unused Experience Vouchers can be returned within 14 days for a full refund to the original purchaser, no questions asked.
If you have any unused Experience Vouchers, you can exchange them for anything else in our marketplace, no matter when. If you choose an experience that's more expensive, you'll need to pay the difference, but if you choose one that costs less, you'll receive a credit towards your next booking.
No refunds are allowed once the experience is booked, but you can reschedule up to 24 hours before your experience, for a date within a year of the original booking. To reschedule, contact the experience provider directly. No-shows or rescheduling less than 24 hours in advance means losing the value of your experience.
