National Museum of American History
Meet for this 2.5 hour, small-group tour at the National Museum of American History a little before your departure time. There are two departure times offered for this tour. From a ragtag group of colonists to one of the world’s super powers, the United States has made quite a name for itself. The National Museum of American History traces this path through a unique collection of objects including the actual banner that inspired the country’s national anthem. Learn about the first president, George Washington, while viewing his sword, and discover how Hollywood has helped shape this country when you check out Dorothy’s ruby red slippers. Plus, visit the extensive collection of first ladies’ gowns to the Greensboro lunch counter that embodies the Civil Rights Movement. This tour will help you to understand the exciting and oftentimes controversial history behind this vast country.

Super time with our guide Anne Marie. Having Anne by our side contributing her knowledge, learnings and color added so much more value to our experience. Look forward to the next trip!

We had a tour today with Meghan. She did a freer job of giving us an overview of the Smithsonian. We hit several of the highlights and received a lot of great information. It was a lovely afternoon of touring. We would highly recommend our tour guide and our tour.

We signed up for a semi-private group tour and ended up getting a private on of our own history tour with Kate (other family didn’t join). It was informative and interesting. Kate kept our kids engaged and covered all the highlights. Well worth the time and $$.
