Alexandria History Tours

History is better where it happened.

Our local guides are trained on primary sources, not a script, bringing you inside the stories of Old Town's taverns, churches, townhomes, and streets.

Alexandria History Tours began with a Marine Corps veteran asking questions about the city around him. One question led to another. Curiosity became research. Research became tours. And curiosity still guides every tour we give.

Welcome to Historic Old Town Alexandria!

  •  Check out the many locations and hear the stories tied to Alexandria's history during the Civil War.
