It’s outstanding but a lot of the house is currently under renovation. Our ViP guide Faith was great!

Boat trip way too long, Mt Vernon mansion under reconstruction. Not a great trip for the time invested.

Good tour, extremely knowledgeable guide, so-so weather. Only disappointment was the upper floors closed for rennovation.

Great. Faith was super knowledgeable, Allegra was great but seemed a bit all over the place. The tour was interesting but crowded and rushed… we also almost missed the boat. The food wasn’t awesome for the lunch voucher.
