Carla, the owner/operatore of Historic Leesburg Walking Tours was simply great. We enjoyed our tour with her just last week. She is very knowledgeable, pleasant and professional. We have traveled the country and world and will usually take in a walking tour with most places we visit. For some reason we never thought of doing so in our own backyard. We are glad we finally did. You will not be disappointed with Carla or her fabulous historic tour of downtown Leesburg, VA. .............Patrick Arnone

This tour was a great experience, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Leesburg, whether for their first time or their tenth. The monument and historic buildings are well preserved, and having Carla point out their architectural details and the stories behind them was time well spent. Loved it!

I have been to Leesburg so many times, I live 15 minutes from it but I have never seen the buildings and history that Carla provided. I recommend this tour to all my out of town guests and for locals! Great tour, knowledgeable tour guide.
