  • Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, Washington DC, District of Columbia, United States
    Your guide will take you to visit the highlights of the collection, housed in a massive building that covers the area of 18 football fields. Gaze into the world-famous Hope Diamond, whose brilliant blue sparkle, and immodest size at 46 karats, captured the attention of former owner Marie Antoinette. Wander through the displays of gems and minerals, including the Dom Pedro Aquamarine, the world’s largest gem of its type, which glows brilliantly from within. Travel back in time to learn about death rituals while exploring real mummies from Ancient Egypt. Then step out of the past into the wild, exploring the mighty polar bears, elephants, and giraffes that roam across earth’s surface. From the land, jump into the sea at the Ocean Hall, where you’ll discover a live coral reef exhibit as well as a 45-ton whale, Phoenix, which is a replica of a real living what that the museum tracks. By the end, you’ll understand why so many people come to visit the 126.5 million artefacts housed at the National Museum of Natural History.

Tim was our tour guide and he did a fabulous job. We had a 10 and 13 year old and while Tim was very informative and interesting to the adults, he was not boring to the kiddos. Our trip to the museum would not have been nearly as good if we had not had Tim there. He was able to get us around the museum, show us various exhibits, highlights, etc., He enabled us to save time and also provided tons of knowledge we would never had received.. It was worth every penny. I highly recommend Tim. Plus his voice carries wrll which was impt as loud people would walk by. Also had some folks try to tagalong who were not in our group as they could tell he knew his stuff. Glory
