Tours from Tim do not Disappoint! - Let Tim be your guide to George Washington's Alexandria. It was amazing listening to him talk about the city and it's connection to the Father of our Country! Tim knows what he's talking about. Book him today for your next trip to VA and then thank him for the tour and his service to our country in the Marine Corps!

Exceeded expectations! - We are local to the area, but were interested in learning more about our hometown, so we booked a tour. Tim was exceptional in his professionalism and knowledge. He presented the information in a very easy to understand format. The tour was efficient, but not rushed. We learned many new facts about the streets we see every day and it was a very pleasant way to enjoy an afternoon. Highly recommend if you are local or visiting!
