We had such a great time on this tour. Louie was so informative of telling us the history of Mount Vernon and the area around it. He was so nice letting us take our time to look at everything we wanted to see and be able to take pictures. If you have time, this is a must tour to take.

We had a wonderful tour with Frank. He was so knowledgeable! The tour of the Mansion and grounds were beautiful and learned so much.

Deep dive and a beautiful tour

Published on Mar, 2024

Our guide Louie was fantastic and very patient with some crabby young ones in our group ha ha. He gave us a very knowledgeable and warm tour of mount Vernon and gave us a much richer experience than if we had just gone on our own. Worth the investment for this tour and highly recommend Louie as a guide!
