Lafayette Square - Tours To Go

Lafayette Square

Residences of the Presidentses Walking Tour: Lafayette Square & Foggy Bottom


[Tours are generally offered March through October. Please note that this tour is recommended for people ages 13 and up.] DC is the city of presidents, and this is the tour that gives you the most POTUS for your buck. People want to be close to power. And from the time D.C. was founded, that meant being close to the White House. You’ll check out Lafayette Square and the neighborhood of Foggy Bottom. You’ll explore the homes and buildings where presidents lived, worked, partied, plotted and worshipped — before, during and after their time in office. You’ll see some of DC’s oldest buildings and enjoy one of the most famous public spaces in the world. And don’t forget the stories. Our guide will tell you about the building of the city — and the British attempt in 1814 to unbuild it. There’s a Real Housewives scandals, a Pennsylvania Avenue shootout, slaves fighting for freedom and lots more.

Summer funfair ride & Galeries Lafayette walking tour - Seasonal
An intimate group walking experience that will start inside and on the rooftop of Galeries Lafayette, worldly known and renowned Paris department store. Then, after a leisurely stroll into the chic, luxurious and prestigious Opera house / Vendome square district (home of the Ritz palace hotel and the most prestigious jewelers) and the Haussmannian Paris, while your guide will unfold historical and fun facts to you on the way, you’ll reach our final destination: Paris Summer Funfair, a seasonal attraction park installed right inside the gardens of the Louvre museum, known as Tuileries Gardens. There, between the Louvre and Champs Elysees, we’ll offer you (and go with you) a ride at the contemplative Ferris wheel or the exhilarating Aerial Swing (your choice!) with the Eiffel tower as a natural backdrop for exciting keepsake photos. Ooops! I almost forgot. Your guide will indulge you festive treats for your sweet tooth at the funfair.
