Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History
Start at the National Museum of Natural History where your private guide will take you to visit the highlights of the collection, housed in a massive building that covers the area of 18 football fields. Gaze into the world-famous Hope Diamond, whose brilliant blue sparkle, and immodest size at 46 karats, captured the attention of former owner Marie Antoinette. Wander through the displays of gems and minerals, including the Dom Pedro Aquamarine, the world’s largest gem of its type, which glows brilliantly from within. Travel back in time to learn about death rituals while exploring real mummies from Ancient Egypt. Then step out of the past into the wild, exploring the mighty polar bears, elephants, and giraffes that roam across earth’s surface. From the land, jump into the sea at the Ocean Hall, where you’ll discover a live coral reef exhibit as well as a 45-ton whale, Phoenix, which is a replica of a real living what that the museum tracks.

Смитсоновский национальный музей естественной истории
Начните с Национального музея естественной истории, где ваш частный гид проведет вас по экспозициям коллекции, расположенным в огромном здании площадью 18 футбольных полей. Взгляните на всемирно известный бриллиант Хоуп, чье ярко-голубое сияние и нескромный размер в 46 карат привлекли внимание бывшей владелицы Марии-Антуанетты. Прогуляйтесь по выставкам драгоценных камней и минералов, в том числе по аквамарину Дом Педро, крупнейшему в мире драгоценному камню такого типа, который ярко светится изнутри. Путешествуйте во времени, чтобы узнать о ритуалах смерти, исследуя настоящие мумии из Древнего Египта. Затем выйдите из прошлого в дикую природу, исследуя могучих белых медведей, слонов и жирафов, которые бродят по поверхности земли. С суши прыгните в море в Океаническом зале, где вы обнаружите живой экспонат кораллового рифа, а также 45-тонного кита Феникса, который является точной копией настоящего живого существа, которое отслеживает музей.

Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History
The best way to see the most famous items in the Smithsonian Institution’s vast collection. Start your day with the largest Natural History collection in the world. Stones, bones, and bugs clamor for your attention at the Smithsonian Natural History museum as the largest taxidermied elephant in the world trumpets your welcome (his name is Henry!). But of course, these aren’t just any stones, bones, and bugs from someone’s backyard. From the (supposedly) cursed Hope Diamond to the recently renovated Fossil Hall with Mastodon, T-Rex, and Diplodocus looming over you, your inner child will remind you of how fascinating the natural world’s mysteries are.

National Museum of American History
After a break to recharge, the Smithsonian Museum of American History’s treasures are next. Gaze upon Dorothy’s ruby slippers which rival the Hope Diamond in notoriety. Walk amongst the First Ladies exhibit — the most visited exhibit in the history of the Smithsonian! You’ll see touchstones of American struggle, identity and culture from the “Star-Spangled Banner” that flew over Ft. McHenry at dawn’s early light signifying the turning point of the War of 1812 and inspiring the song that would become the Nation’s Anthem in the 1930’s to the Greensboro Lunch Counter that reminds us that our battles have taken many forms. Cars, trains, kitchens, military uniforms, political ephemera, and Hollywood memorabilia will take you down the twists and turns of memory lane navigated by your expert guide.

Meghan was very thoughtful to offer a wheelchair for our special needs son and was simply the smartest tour guide ever. She made me very minute of the tour interesting with her fascinating stories and high energy, which kept even our 3 boys glued to her. So worth the money not to wander aimlessly for hours on our own.
