5.00Dash Krempel was our fabulous guide! He was so knowledgeable and fun as he lead us through history. The Clara Barton house was an unexpected bonus, as she is one of my heroes in history. I would recommend this tour, especially if Dash is the guide!

1.00Unfortunately I ignored the text from “Unscripted tours” informing me that the 2:00 pm tour starts at 400 7th St NW. My tickets were from Viator. But at 2:00 me and 4 children were at Fords theatre waiting when Tony called and said the tour would be there in a bit. So we waited. And waited. At 3 pm, with the kids getting tired and hungry, we decided to get free tickets and walked through ourselves. Would have loved a guided tour; even the theatre personnel said good things about Tony and the tour.
Brought history to life.

5.00Tony with Unscripted by Guided Tours DC provided an absolutely exceptional experience at Ford’s Theatre and the Petersen House in Washington, DC. From the moment the tour began, his depth of knowledge and passion for history were unmistakable. He explained every detail of the events leading up to the night of Lincoln’s assassination with clarity and precision. Tony seamlessly connected political context, personal stories, and historical facts in a way that brought the era to life. At Ford’s Theatre, he walked us through the layout, the people involved, and the atmosphere of that historic evening. His explanations of John Wilkes Booth’s movements were thorough, vivid, and easy to follow. When we transitioned to the Petersen House, Tony continued to impress with his attention to detail. He described the final hours of President Lincoln’s life with respect, accuracy, and incredible insight. Every question asked was answered thoughtfully and confidently. Tony did not just share facts, he told a powerful story that kept everyone fully engaged. His ability to explain complex historical moments in an understandable way was truly remarkable. You could tell he had mastered every single aspect of the tour content. The tour felt personal, immersive, and expertly guided from start to finish. I walked away with a far deeper understanding and appreciation of this pivotal moment in American history. I wholeheartedly recommend Tony, Pam my tour guide for the National Archives through Unscripted by Guided Tours DC for every site you want to visit.
