The pass is really useful. It can be picked up before the date that you wish to use it. I did the Spy Museum, Crime Museum and the Newseum in 1 day as they were close together

Doing what: In the Footsteps of George Washington: Day Cruise to Mount Vernon
The boat ride was a nice change from a motor coach. I feel there should have been a sign informing us of a tram as that climb to the house was very difficult. Overall it was very enjoyable.

Mt. Vernon is beautiful. The boat ride is very nice but they could definitely upgrade their food and beverage options. Also visitors should be aware that walking in areas of Mt. Vernon can be challenging. The walk from the beach to George Washington's tomb and the "Woodland Trail" are quite the workout.

This was a lovely day in every aspect. The cruise was very relaxing, the scenery beautiful, and the conversation with fellow passengers was interesting. The tour guide (our captain) was informative. Definitely a recommended trip to future travelers.

We really enjoyed this! Our bus driver/guide was great too, he kept us entertained. One downfall was that we were unable to stop and see Christ Church, something was going on there.

Everything was great on this day trip to Mt. Vernon. The crew on the boat was the best and visiting the home of George Washington was such a great day.

Relaxing and informative cruise on the Potomac. Plenty of time to explore the grounds and tour the house and other buildings. Best gift shop in the DC area.

It was great. Needed more time. Another 2 hours at Mt. Vernon and 2 hours in Old Alexandria. If you had offered an all day trip, I would have booked that.

Doing what: Mount Vernon and Old Town Alexandria Half-Day Trip from Washington DC
The bus was 20-30 minutes late to pick us up. He was sent some place else first. That cut our time short at Mt. Vernon.
The advertising about the pentagon, crystal city and Washington's church were misleading. We did not stop at the first 2 and the church was not open to go inside. I was disappointed in that part.
The bus driver was fun and told good stories.

Doing what:
Our tour to Mount Vernon and Arlington National Cemetery is one we will never forget! Our Guide was a font of History and information. The places we went can certainly speak for themselves, but to get details and a back story is so worth it!
