Our tour guide was good and knowledgeable and Mount Vernon was beautiful. However the transportuon was less than ideal. The bus was dirty (I found used Kleenex on my seat), and the worst part was that the bus AC did not work, making the trip was extremely uncomfortable. The house tour felt very rushed as the guides would not generally wait until everyone was in the room to start the the explanation. A big disappointment.

Beautiful property! But the best thing about this tour was our driver Bobby. "You can call him Robert or Bobby, but not Bob!". He was full of wonderful information, jokes, all around nice fellow. The home was beautiful as were the grounds and the view. Definitely would recommend this tour.

The thought of being in the very house our first president lived and died in was unimaginable. Being able to touch the very bannister he and so many others touched was like being transported in time. Truly awesome!!
