Adventures for Creative Tourists

Thanks so much for a great experience. We had a very personable and knowledgeable guide. And, the size of the group made it easy to hear and move through the astonishingly beautiful building. I am recommending your Library of Congress Tour to my friends. We were even a bit lost at the beginning, but a quick phone call put us on the right track. The person on the phone was very courteous, and assured us that the tour guide would wait for us to get to the right location.

Steven was very knowledgeable about the Library of Congress. Great tour. unfortunately, I didnt like his suggestion at the end to offer a tip to the guide.

Adventures for Creative Tourists scammed me and at least 7 other tourists coming to DC to receive a guided tour of the National Museum of African American History. We paid $60 plus fees for the tour which was supposed to go from 10am-1pm.The tour guide Emmanuel, was unorganized from the start. He did get us in the museum, but it took us at least 15 minutes to get started. We begin the tour and he seems informative, but 15 minutes into the tour we are stopped by security who informs Emmanuel NO OUTSIDE TOUR GUIDES ARE ALLOWED!This delays our tour another 10 minutes until we are informed he can no longer give us a tour, but would stay and answer questions. Well, that is NOT a guided tour. The individuals in our group went and did their own thing, so Emmanuel chose to follow a few and left the rest of us. I never saw Emmanuel again.I will never again book a tour with this company and neither should you!

While guiding us to a selection of the art at the gallery Stephen Mead was entertaining and informative. He had a story to tell about each piece of art that he took us to view and pointed out details that would have escaped most of us if we were on our own. In the process we learned something about art that we didn’t know before the tour. It will stand us in good stead as we continue to view and enjoy the masterworks of the art world wherever we go.
