Learn about some powerhouse women while walking through DC's beautiful Georgetown Neighborhood!

During the early days of the Cold War and the Kennedy era, the Georgetown neighborhood was the center of Western power. Men made most of the policy, but women also made history. On this tour, you will learn about the fascinating lives of several women that learned how to make their mark in a man's world, in politics, journalism, and spycraft, all while walking through one of DC's most picturesque neighborhoods! Tour is approximately two hours.

My friend and I really enjoyed Katie's tour. She shared many inside stories regarding powerful DC ladies and the men in their lives. It was great to walk around Georgetown on a pleasant Fall afternoon and see the homes where they lived, including those of JFK and Jackie. Katie has a fun way of sharing history -- we learned a lot and loved her tour.

Can recommend this walk. Katie knows what she is taking about and as an European, I learned a lot about the brave women and the achievement they were not thanked for performing.

You will leave more knowledgeable than when you started the walk.

And…. Katie is funny, interesting and just good company.

She was incredibly knowledgeable, a great storyteller, and had obviously put a lot of thought and planning into the layout and content of our tour.

We had an absolute BLAST on our tour! Katie is incredibly knowledgable and friendly, and we had so much fun we didn't even mind the rain. (Pro tip: bring an umbrella or poncho just in case.) I wish I lived in DC so I could sign up for every single one of Katie's tours.

Katie is so well informed and a history buff who goes behind the curtains to give you a richer perspective on the humanistic and social dimensions behind the mainstream historical narrative. We requested her to organize this tour as a "dads and daughters" walk on a Sunday - and it was superb!

This was by far the best tour in the DC area I have taken. Katie's passion for history and knowledge of the topic shone through in a very engaging and approachable manner. She has created truly the best tour business on scene and I look forward to many more tours!

Katie really did a great job and was very knowledgeable! I can't wait to go on another of her tours soon!

Packaged in an entertaining and charming tour, it gave me very informative insights in parts of the history of DC, which are otherwise only known to specialized historians.
