Ken showed our family a wonderful time on our private Mt Vernon tour. He was very knowledgeable and explained and showed us things we would have never known or seen if we were on our own. He even showed us sights in downtown Alexandria and gave us recommendations to have lunch at, which we did, and it was amazing. I would highly recommend this VIP tour if you were planning a trip in the near future.

The experience was great. We were picked up and taken to Mt Vernon. Ken was great and shared many facts about it with us. He walked at our pace. Great opportunity for you and your family. Go for it!!!

Fantastic day out! Our guide to Monticello was Dion who was helpful, knowledgeable, very funny and told great stories.  We had a great day with Dion at Monticello.

Ken is excellent. Very knowledgeable but low key. Very informative and pleasant tour. Would highly recommend.

Excellent guide - really good value tour. We saw so much more with the convenience of a guide.
