Descripción
Explore the heart of American political power on a guided walking tour of Washington, DC. See the White House, the U.S. Treasury, the Old Post Office, and Federal Triangle.
Discover the political heart of Washington, DC, on a 2-hour guided walking tour through the streets surrounding the White House. Begin near Lafayette Square, where presidents, diplomats, protesters, and historic figures have shaped American history just steps from the White House.
See the iconic presidential residence from the outside and learn how this small area became one of the most powerful addresses in the world. Continue to the impressive Eisenhower Executive Office Building (EEOB), once home to the State, War, and Navy Departments. Admire its distinctive architecture and hear stories about the people and decisions connected to this extraordinary government building.
Walk past the historic U.S. Treasury Building and toward the Ellipse, where you can experience another perspective of the White House and understand how the presidential grounds connect with the wider monumental landscape of Washington.
Follow Pennsylvania Avenue toward the historic Old Post Office, an architectural landmark that has witnessed the transformation of downtown Washington for more than a century. Finish in Federal Triangle, one of the most important concentrations of federal government buildings in the United States.
Your guide will explain how architecture, urban planning, politics, and national identity came together to create the Washington DC we recognize today. Rather than simply seeing famous buildings, this tour helps you understand how the American presidency and federal government operate within the physical landscape of the capital.
