A Clandestine Meeting on a Wintery Day

Published on Dec, 2024

I was invited with a group of friends whose Mom decided not to go at the last minute. I had no idea what to expect. Starting from the Oak Hill Cemetery, it was fascinating from the get go. Not only is Rosanna incredibly knowledgeable of her craft but also of Georgetown history. And, she has a very comforting and inviting approach to telling the stories and insight along the way. We were all surprised at her candid approach to answering questions and discussing her very interesting history. This is a must do tour not only for the Spy History but also seeing a close up snapshot of Georgetown. Highly recommend.

This is a fun and interesting tour, well worth the time and money.

Published on Oct, 2024

I'd give her 6 stars if I could. The tour is an easy walk around Georgetown with a fascinating narrative. Rosanna mixes historical locations, their former, and sometimes notorious, occupants, and their connections with the intelligence services with anecdotes about the part of her experience as an intelligence officer (that she can share). She's great about answering questions and describing what Hollywood and TV get right and wrong. It's more than worth the money. The tour is 90 minutes, but the time flies by!

A unique experience!

Published on May, 2024

We had such a great time with Will! He was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and had a wealth of stories to share. This is definitely a unique activity and we'd highly recommend adding it to your itinerary if you want something more than just the usual sights!

A definite must-do tour!

Published on May, 2024

My husband and I took the Georgetown tour on May 19, 2024. Rosanna was an awesome tour guide! She was very knowledgeable about the history and answered all of our questions. It was like walking around town with a friend!

Learn about the Spy World

Published on Mar, 2024

The tour started on time and was casual and easy going. We visited multiple homes where famous people in the spy world lived and learned what it was and is like to be in that world.
