Being in the Ford theatre and actually seeing and feeling the history. The park rangers and our tour guide’s extensive knowledge on the history helped make the experience memorable and very real. Our tour guide Tony went above and beyond. The tour was very interactive!

This was a terrific experience, thanks in no small part to our exceptional tour guide, Jim. His storytelling brought the theater to life and he shared many lesser-known anecdotes that enriched our understanding. The tour itself was also well-organized. Highly recommended.

Awesome tour! The tour guide was super knowledgeable and knew stuff that was likely wrong in the museum in the theater's basement. Well worth going on this tour.

The statues of the people in the Ford Theater, the actual gun, the play at the end... and most of all Tony our tour guide. He was funny and knowledgeable. Took us al around the blocks surrounding the theater. He was a lot of fun!
