Fabulous tour! - Our guide was Ingeborg and she was fabulous. Having toured both previously she imparted so much new fun facts are our walking tour. Loved learning all about PierreL’Enfant and Benjamin Banneker. Really can’t recommend enough. Ingeborg also provided guidance on the interior of the library of congress which equaled the tour with a docent I had last year. Really fabulous tour. Will look for another on my next trip.

Due to various reasons... - Due to various reasons you may not be able to see all areas of the Capitol Hill building. We were lucky enough to see the Senate in session. Interesting process to see live.
