George Washington’s Mt. Vernon Tour & Dinner
Transportation: 4:30 PM | Tour & Dinner: 5:45 PM - 9:30 PM
In 1752, following the death of his older half-brother, Lawrence, George Washington took up residence
at the house his father, Augustine Washington, built in 1735. Over the next five decades, Washington
expanded the house, Mount Vernon, to create an impressive 21-room mansion with vivid colored walls,
intricate architectural details and elegant furnishings. The interiors have been meticulously restored to
their appearance in 1799.
Mount Vernon is an iconic American landmark – an enduring reminder of the life and legacy of the Father
of Our Country. Once a vibrant plantation in the 18th century, the estate is now one of the nation’s most
visited historic sites. With an authentically interpreted 18th century home, lush gardens and grounds,
intriguing museum galleries, immersive programs, and first-rate dining and shopping, Mount Vernon is
an incomparable national treasure.
