Fantastic tour!
Terrific experience! We decided to do the tour on the spur of the moment and are so glad we did. We've lived in DC for a long time but didn't know any of the history, it was fascinating. Our guide was welcoming, considerate, and knew so much. She was happy to answer all our questions. It was our first tour with her and we'll definitely do it again. I strongly recommend this tour and guide!

Another great visit
Though had visited there several times before attended the after hours event for members. Free to do what desired. Walked the grounds by myself without the crowds. Then relaxed on the chairs at the rear of the mansion looking at the river. The mansion and museum tours were great as usual. .

Our tour guide was great! He was very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, flexible and very patient with my 3 elderly siblings who walk slowly. I have a very scholarly brother and cousin with whom he meshed well with their knowledge and endless questions! On top of that he had a great sense of humor and lots of positive energy.

Embassy Row Spy History Tour with a Former CIA Officer
emmakZ2338FR, Jul 2026
Great tour combining Embassy Row intrigue and CIA experience
This is a very fun and informative tour! Our guide, Tom, is a former CIA Case Officer and shared a lot of information - both about places and past happenings in the Embassy Row / Dupont Circle area and about his own experiences. There is a whole US intelligence world out there that most of us don't realize is protecting us. We were there during the July 2026 heat wave - it was still around 98 degrees that evening - but Tom held our attention! Highly recommend!
