Once a thriving port, Georgetown is DC’s oldest neighborhood and still reveals glimpses of mule-drawn boats and flour mills.

More than just a premier shopping destination, Georgetown has a delicious and culturally diverse history that is sure to surprise you. Discover the complexity of this ever-changing neighborhood and how it came to be the Georgetown we know today.

In addition to carefully selected tastings and fascinating history, your experience includes (electronic) photos taken by your guide on tour, as well as a resource to recommendations for some of our other favorite local spots.
