Washington D.C. Travel Forum

I am hoping that there might be some other British citizens interested in making up a tour of the Whitehouse on Saturday 5th April? The Embassy can only organise tours of a minimum of 10 people and there are only two British citizens who want to tour the Whitehouse that day so far....

There doesn't seem to be any other way of gaining access to the Whitehouse these days - the ticket booth is apparently long gone. If you are interested in touring the Whitehouse that day (it is free - go on!) please call the British Embassy in Washington and let them know - hopefully we can make up the numbers to ten! The telephone numbers for the embassy are:-

Telephone General: (1)(202) 588 6500
Telephone General: (1)(202) 588 7800

- if you dial 0, you will be put through to an operator, who will direct you to the appropriate person (who is really nice!).

Whitehouse tours are scheduled one month in advance, so if you want to tour the Whitehouse 5th April, please let the embassy know as soon as possible! Thank you!

My family and I will be there Saturday April 5th. I will call today. We are a total of 4 (if they dont mind 6 and 8 year olds).

Thanks for posting this.

Thanks all - our tour request has now been submitted.
