We thought this would be a good tour because it was only one hour and didn't require a ton of walking. Unfortunately our tour guide Drew was not the best. He was a nice enough guy and knew his facts but overall presentation was very dry, monotone and just seemed like he was going through the motions. He didn't really engage with the people and didn't show much enthusiasm. Probably 75% of the people on our tour dropped out early. Interesting facts and history it was just a shame that the presentation was very poor. On the other hand, we had a total of 44 people in the group so we were split into two separate groups and the people that went with the female guide seemed to have a much better experience and her tour was full up until the end where as almost all of our people dropped out half way through. So depending on your guide, the tour may be worthwhile. It was only $20 and one hour so it was not a big investment of time or money. Wish we could have experienced the other guide's tour.

We had a Ghost Tour while we were visiting DC and our Tour Guide by the name of Andrew was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and kept our interest. He knew the history well and it was great to learn about all the hidden ghost stories of the area.
