WOW-what a wonderful tour. I have been to Mt. Vernon before, but I really learned more this tour that the 2 previous trips combined. Kenneth was knowledgeable, professional and so very interesting.I can not recommend enough!

Thanks very much, Lisa, for the great review. I'll admit to being a Washington "nerd," but I'm very proud to be one. There is always so much to learn about the father of our country!

Kenneth Roberts did a great job. He was a volunteer at Mount Vernon and does a great job. Take his tour

Many thanks! Yes, I worked as a Mount Vernon history interpreter for two years before starting my own company for private tours. I never tire of visiting the beautiful Estate!

The guide/owner, Ken, was amazing. He provided tons of information we didnt know about Mount Vernon and Gen. Washington's life. Ken kept the trip interesting and fun. One of the best parts was we weren't crowded with a hundred other people in a tour bus. We saw those people that day and felt sorry for them as they rushed around and pushed each other trying to be the one's to hear the information given by one person. In fact, my wife and I were the only ones. Ken provided so much info just on the ride to Mount Vernon that it made the tour just that much more pleasurable since we could focus on newer things we didnt know about. When we finished the tour of the mansion, we met up with Ken again and we walked the rest of the grounds with him guiding and teaching us. I really can't say too many good things about this tour. Highly recommended.
