We learned so many interesting facts and tidbits on this tour that we would not have known if we had explored either place on our own. Andrew took us right to the BIG 3 documents in the Archives gave us an in-depth explanation of how each of the documents was created and some amazing highlights in the American History Museum. I would go on any tour with Unscripted - the engaging stories are the best way to learn history. Thank you! -TripAdvisor Review
About the Tour
Experience the birth of a nation like a true insider. Celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States with an exclusive, semi-private journey through the icons of American history.
VIP Access at the National Archives: Skip the long lines and head straight to the Rotunda. Stand inches away from the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights.
Artistic Legacy at the Portrait Gallery: Explore the historic Old Patent Office Building. Your expert guide will reveal the hidden secrets behind the portraits of Founding Fathers and the iconic "unfinished" George Washington.
The Nation’s Attic: At the National Museum of American History, go beyond the glass cases. Hear the untold stories of Washington’s uniform, Lincoln’s top hat, the original Star-Spangled Banner, and even Dorothy’s Ruby Slippers.
Why Choose This Tour? With a small group and a professional storyteller, you won't just see the artifacts—you'll understand the people who changed the world.
