The Old Town Experience is a great way to enhance your next visit to Alexandria, Virginia. In fact, even if you live here, The Old Town Experience will show you things you never expected. The Old Town Experience is a company specializing in group tours. They will provide guides for your bus or private party, or arrange a walking tour of the city's historic district with one of their expert guides.
The bus tours with a step-on guide last slightly over an hour at a cost of $6 per person. You may also customize this tour by contacting The Old Town Experience in advance of your arrival.
Walking tours are about one hour as well. The tour will cover city's unique architecture, hospitality symbols, historic sites, folklore, and many famous residents. The cost for a walking tour is $15 per person.
Carlyle House, Gadsby's Tavern, or the Old Apothecary Shop can be added to your tours. Each of the museums is an additional four dollars and lasts 40 minutes longer.
Carolyn Cooper is the proprietor of The Old Town Experience, and I recommend you speak with here if you are interested in custom tour, private tour or something different. Carolyn is part of the local color of Alexandria, and has been featured on Fox Morning News and the Weekend Section of the Washington Post.
Carolyn can arrange for lunch, dinner, tea, a riverboat cruise, a shopping tour . . . and anything else you can imagine. In fact, even if you have lived in Alexandria for years, Carolyn can put together a tour that will amaze you. Her mission is to make sure you enjoy all that Alexandria has to offer, whether you are a visitor or resident. Enjoy!

Thanks for the advice -- love to be shown around a new area. Usually I just call a Realtor and pretend to be a buyer (just kidding).

Brought me home again. I grew up just south of Alexandria in the Fort Hunt area. Very good to know about the tours. I visit from Florida as often as possible.
