Historic Georgetown: History, Gossip, & Architecture Tour

See a historic canal, pre-colonial & Victorian architecture, & cobblestone streets. Hear true stories of wild women, innovative immigrants, & founding fathers in a neighborhood older than the capital.
Georgetown’s shady lanes and cobblestone streets reflect another side of the Capital.

It is Washington’s genteel, southern side where Presidents lived when they were just Congressmen, where the Founding Fathers laid out the plans for the city on a tavern bar top, and where historic churches offer services.

Our Historic Georgetown tour focuses on the houses and sites of a town that still invokes the image of refinement and class after 300 years.

You will see and hear stories of:

Chesapeake & Ohio Canal - a waterway through the industrial part of the neighborhood.
Old Stone House - oldest residential building in the district, now a National Park site.
Homes of Jackie & John F. Kennedy - hear about their time in Georgetown before and after his assassination
18th and 19th Century Homes - learn about the diverse, historic architecture of the houses and the stories of those who have lived here. Look for original firemarks, coal chutes, ironworks, and gas lanterns.
Hear stories of the Black Georgetown community, immigrants who shaped the neighborhood, and women who bucked social norms.
