After soaking in some history at Lafayette Square, we’ll head deeper into DC to try some local fan favorite donuts from local celebrities.

I visited Cork and had Chloe as my tour guide, sadly (for her not me) it was only me on the tour. I thoroughly enjoyed it however was a shame i was the only one. Tour lasted two hours, we walked around and visited 4 different venues for a doughnut - these were incredible. I only ate one and took the others to eat later in the day & they still tasted amazing even after traveling. Chloe really knew about the city and had lots of info to share, even when asking questions about other things along route she knew the answers. Would highly recommend.

Our tour guide had a great knowledge of the city. He showed us Toronto's fantastic doughnut shops, it's quirky spray paint artwork streets, and the history of the city.
