Nice to freely roam the property. The house tour was well done with access to individuals throughout the house to answer questions and give commentary. There is so much to see both indoors museum/tour center and around the massive grounds - can't take it in in one visit.

We really enjoyed our tour of Mt. Vernon, VA. The grounds around the mansion are more extensive than I thought. The Museum and Education Center was very interesting. I would love to return and learn more about George Washington's life and political influences. We didn't have time to visit the distillery and gristmill. It would be interesting to take special tours around the mansion and the farms. Very glad we had several hours to spend there.

This was a great tour of the home of George Washington. Highly recommend it for families with older kids 8 years old or older.

The guides were well organized to deal with the crowd visiting Washington's home

Normal tour of mansion and then time on your own to explore the rest of the grounds. An overall enjoyable day learning about our first president and his life at Mount Vernon.

This was our first use of Viator and it certainly did save us a few dollars for a family of 5. At the time of our visit was one of the hotter days of the summer. The garden area was nice and shaded. Do take the time to talk with the reenactors on the grounds. Mt Vernon was under scaffolding while there but still enjoyed the tour and the grounds. Be prepared for lots of walking if you want to do everything.

Great trip - although it had been 15 degrees cooler. We plan to go back and take some of the other tours offered possibly the cruise. The only thing I wish is that each of the tour guides would have expanded their talk to another minute or two. I did feel like we were rushed through the mansion just a tad.

House worth seeing but we had poor weather so unable to appreciate the views over the river

A beautiful, historic place. But more should be articulated there about the fact that it was built and operated on the backs of enslaved Africans. The US is still not coming to terms with its criminal past of slavery in the South.

great place but tour very short

I loved every moment of my tour. So amazing! There is one thing that might help and that is to better explain the tour on where you start and better marking the trail but other then that it was a dream come true!!

It was outstanding. The only bad thing was the rain. Oh well, I enjoy it anyway.
