Description:

Explore Mount Vernon, the longtime home to George Washington, and step back in time as you roam through 23 galleries and a collection of 700 artifacts. Then stop in Old Town Alexandria and at Christ's Church on your way back to the capital.

The sense of history is prevalent on the grounds of Mount Vernon, which you explore as you walk inside the main mansion, maids quarters, kitchen, stables, and greenhouse. The hundreds of artifacts on display at the Donald W. Reynolds Museum and Education Center offer a revealing look into the Washington family at Mount Vernon during the 18th century. You can even sit down for a meal with the first president in the recreated dining room.

Your drive back to D.C. includes a stop in the Old Town Alexandria, a charming seaport town that is known for its cobblestone streets, interesting architecture, and quaint shops. Also stop at Christ’s Church, the first Episcopal church in Alexandria. Explore the church, which was built in English country-style architecture and visited by George Washington, as well as notable leaders, including Robert E. Lee, Franklin Roosevelt, and Winston Churchill.
