    Walking Tour of Capitol Hill was interesting and fun

    I lined up a private group tour for 10 friends (my hiking group) and we had a great time. Allison was very helpful with scheduling the tour and Ruth was a fun and informative guide. We'll definitely consider scheduling one of the other tours sometime.
