    Rebecca was awesome and...

    Jamie_G, Dec 2025
    Rebecca was awesome and shared some really great stories. As we wandered museums the day after our tour, my husband and I kept recalling stories shared with us and looking for specific figures in photos (we found Alice Roosevelt more than once!). It was a great time and I would recommend it to anyone interested.

    Response from Host, Jan 2026

    Thank you! We’re so glad Rebecca’s stories stayed with you and made your museum visits even more meaningful. We really appreciate the recommendation!

    Fun informative tour....
