The Headquarters of the National Council of Negro Women (NCNW) is a historic building located in Washington D.C., United States. The NCNW was founded in 1935 by Mary McLeod Bethune, an educator and civil rights leader, to promote the rights and welfare of African American women and their families. The organization has been headquartered in the same building since 1953 and it has been designated as a National Historic Landmark. The building is located at 633 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, in the heart of the nation’s capital, just a few blocks from the White House. The building was originally constructed in the late 19th century as a commercial office building. In 1942, the building was purchased by the National Council of Negro Women with the help of a loan from the Federal Housing Administration.

The tour was just ok. It felt as though we did a hop-on-hop-off bus tour. The tour guide stayed in the vehicle while we explored drop off sites. He spoke about the history briefly while driving, but did not guide us at the sites. When we arrived at the Lincoln memorial he asked everyone if they wanted to stop and get out and everyone said no, which left us just feeling that we should follow suit even though it was part of the tour. I felt a little pressure to say no as well, guess I should have spoken up. Even though the tour states the end will be at the African American museum and they don't take you back to the starting point, I believe better accommodations should be explored for return. I did enjoy the tour of Mary Mcleod Bethune home. Overall the tour was not the best, but some parts were interesting.

It was an amazing experience! It covered more than I expected. I recommend two days for the African American Museum. I found myself emotional, I loved the overall experience.

I showed up late and Kenny still made it one of the best tours I've ever taken. We covered an incredible amount of ground — the White House, St. Elizabeth's mental institution near the new Mystics arena, Frederick Douglass' 9-acre hilltop estate, Mary McLeod Bethune's home, the first African American theater in the US (Howard Theater) where legends like Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, and Ella Fitzgerald performed. We wrapped up at the Lincoln and MLK Memorials — all before the African American Museum opened at noon. This tour is deeply immersive and covers history you won't find in the standard education system. If you're visiting DC, carve out a full day for this experience. It's not just Black history — it's American history, told fully and honestly. Highly recommend Kenny and this tour.

Not for young child or teen friendly, the driver drove very fast, bumpy ride, did not allow time to take pictures. The driver kept coughing and did not speak clearly. Also does not transport to back to the meeting spot, was told to get a Lyft or Uber.

Not a good tour for childten or teens. The driver drove through areas very fast, did not allow time to take pictures. Kept coughing when attempting to share history and did not speak clearly.

I had such an amazing time on today’s African American History Tour! Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many powerful historical facts about African American history and Washington, DC landmarks. You could really tell he loves what he does. What made the tour even better was his personality—he was funny, engaging, and kept us interested the entire time. He also drove safely and made sure everyone felt comfortable while guiding us through such important history. Overall, he was a great guy and an excellent tour guide. I learned a lot and truly enjoyed the experience. 10/10 – Highly recommended!

It is best to experience this tour in warmer weather! The visit to the African American Museum was especially moving and definitely worth another visit. Aside from the cold temps, the tour was perfect.
