best tour ever!

Absolutely the best way to see this wonderful museum! Our guide was so knowledgeable, gracious, handled every question expertly-- we never would have seen and learned so much without her!! AND I never want to navigate those crowds and the hourly entry time lines without a guide! It was just a marvelous experience!

Walking Tour of Smithsonian Museums

My wife and I booked a 3 hour walking tour of Air/Space, Natural History and American History museums and couldn't have had a better experience. Dash was our docent who explained so much more to us than we ever would have experienced on our own. Funny, extremely informative and a genuine pleasure to be with Dash was the best. If you have never been to DC and want to have an experience to remember I highly recommend Unscripted Tours.
