What are people saying about Library of Congress

Exceptional Tour
Our tour guide was Evelyn with Unscripted Tours. Evelyn was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and fun to spend time with! She knew the Capitol rotunda would be closing, so she hustled us in for the last tour in the early afternoon. She also got us tickets to the house chamber where we saw two bills pass. In the Library of Congress she explained the sculptures, murals and mosaics on the walls and ceiling. She also told us so much US history and we learned so much from her.

Another great tour with Babylon!
Such a wonderful guide with Maribeth and the stories and insights were amazing. We couldn't get inside the Supreme Court but we were given info on what was happening there which was great. Seeing The Library of Congress was easy and she even came with us to the Galleries after the tour. Hearing her past only emphasised where we were and what we were seeing. Highly recommend her and the tour company!

Only half is a small group touró
It says max of 15 people, but you get dumped into the crowds for the Capitol tour, which is done by the Capitol staff in a group of 30 while multiple other tours are going on. Nothing small group about that.

Our tour guide, Evelyn,...
Our tour guide, Evelyn, was amazing! She was so knowledgeable and exciting to listen to. When it switched to another “Capitol” guide there was more standing in one place.

This was a good tour with many interesting historical facts about our nation. There is a bit of walking that should be kept in mind.

Amazing tour & guide
I met Evelyn and we toured the Capitol and the Library of Congress. She was so knowledgeable about the history of both. I don’t know how she remembers so many important details! She made me feel very welcomed and cared for. I loved seeing the inside of the Capitol dome. So many beautiful paintings and art work in that room. The Library of Congress was even more beautiful than the Capitol! Every detail of the artists interpretation is intentional from start to finish. Just amazing.

Outstanding tour
Outstanding tour. Becca was a brilliant tour guide with incredible knowledge. She brought the Capital to life with her descriptions of events and surroundings. We would absolutely recommend this tour and are thankful we had Becca as our super knowledgeable and super friendly guide.

There is some walking and the Capitol building can be crowded. Can be hard to see the statues, as the room is crowded.

Do not miss...
Very professional, especially the familiarisation and training tips. The supplied earphones are excellent and allow the guide (in our case Kyle) to keep the tour facts flowing while we were riding. Fantastic way to see the 'greatest hits' with unlimited chances to ask questions, take photos etc.
