Are there reviews I can read? / Where can I leave a review?
We’re trying to consolidate reviews on our Google page. However, you can also check out reviews of our U Street tour on Airbnb Experiences.
What is the cancellation policy?
Guests can cancel until 7 days before the tour start time for a full refund.
You can reschedule the date or time of your experience up to 48 hours before the tour is scheduled to start at no additional cost.
What about the weather?
It is our general policy to hold tours rain or shine, unless the weather posses a safety hazard (lightning, ice, tornado, etc). If a weather-related emergency arises, we’ll be in contact with the group to cancel, delay, or reschedule.
Our tours include long periods of standing and walking outdoors. Please wear comfortable and weather-appropriate footwear and clothing.
How can we connect if we aren’t in DC?
We created a Patron page for this specific scenario. Become a member to receive monthly DC history posts, access to our very busy photo feed, and behind the scenes of tour creation. It’s a great way to support us from afar and learn something new each week! Attucks Adams on Patreon.
Also, feel free to check up on us via social media: Instagram. Facebook. Twitter. Message, review, tag, and follow.
Are we able to reach the tour site using public transportation?
Yes! For sites on the National Mall, take the Circulator bus. The National Mall route makes several stops near our tours.
For the U Street/Black Broadway tour, take the Green or Yellow lines to Shaw-Howard U station. Walk one block north to T Street NW and make a right to 620 T Street NW (Howard Theatre).
The closest Metro station to the Pennsylvania Avenue tour is Judiciary Square. Use the 4th Street exit if available. Walk one block west towards 451 Indiana Ave NW (Lincoln Statue)
For the Capitol Hill Tour, ride the Metro subway to Capitol South Station (Orange, Blue, or Silver Line). Walk to Independence Ave SE and make a left towards Rayburn House Office Building. Then cross the street to the Capitol side and meet at 100 Maryland Ave SW (U.S. Botanic Gardens).
A third option for getting to all tours is Capital Bikeshare or other shared bicycles. The District has an extensive system of for-rent bicycles. There are dozens of docking stations all over the city, including near each of our tour sites.
Do you accept other forms of payment?
Contact me to work out another form of payment. I'm flexible.
Are the tours private?
Unless noted, all tours are private. Private tours afford the flexibility to seeing more of what you want in an intimate setting, on your schedule. Public tours offer a chance to meet visitors from all over the world, participating in a shared learning experience.
