Good to know
- Please review voucher information after booking as it provides a detailed list of items banned from the Capitol and many other federal buildings. Possession of these items will result in non-admission to the building.
- Closest Metro stop: Capitol South (Orange/Blue/Silver Lines) - Exit station using main exit, walk approximately two blocks north on First Street SE.
- Please plan to arrive 15-20 minutes before tour start time. Tour begins exactly at stated time, entry to buildings are on timed reservations, and group must enter security together, therefore we are unable to accommodate for late arrivals.
- The US Capitol and its surrounding complex are in a secure federal operation area and nearby parking is highly restricted. The nearest public parking is located at Union Station approximately .5 mile from meeting location. Alternative modes of transportation are highly encouraged.
Traveler reviews
Amazing
Amazing and highly recommend. Evelyn was the best!! Even though the trips through the areas was timed, we would have never been able to get the information we did without a tour guide.
Great tour
Great way to get a glimpse of the Supreme Court and inside the Capitol building with an experienced guide. Mel was our guide and she was awesome!
Very insightful tour!
As someone who doesn’t know a lot about the Capitol building, the Supreme Court and the Library of Congress, this tour was very insightful & helpful! My tour guide, Evelyn was very high energy & kind. Even though I ran a little behind, she made me feel very welcomed from once I joined & throughout the entire tour. I would recommend reading the full breakdown description of what is included on this tour as that is why I chose it over other tours that went to the same buildings.
Best tour of Supreme Court ever.
Meg was absolutely fantastic!!! Knowledgeable, engaging with everyone in group, clarity with instructions, confident leader. Loved the tour.
