Jefferson Memorial

The Jefferson Memorial is located in West Potomac Park on the South Bank of the Tidal Basin near Downtown Washington D.C. The Memorial is dedicated to our third President, Thomas Jefferson, who is known for his contributions to the Declaration of Independence and help in negotiating the Louisiana Purchase.

The site for the Jefferson Memorial was selected in 1937 and designed by John Russel Pope whose design reflected Thomas Jefferson's own neoclassical style. Both the exterior and interior walls and floors are made of marble. The interior has a 19 foot bronze statue of Jefferson by Rudulph Evans along with passages from Thomas Jefferson's personal writings engraved on the walls. The Memorial was completed in 1943 and dedicated on April 13, 1943. The total cost for the construction of the Jefferson Memorial was a little over 3 million dollars.

The Memorial is open daily from 8:00am to 11:45pm with the only closure being on December 25.

Carl and Carla Price from Plymouth, England said:

"...We both had a fantastic time and thought that it was great value for money. Robert was an exceptional guide, combining both his vast local knowledge and history of the areas we visited along with his obvious great love and enthusiasm for the city."

Mike from Albany, NY said:

"My family and I went on your 3:00 pm tour on Monday. We had a great time and wanted to pass along positive feedback on Robert. He is a very knowledgeable, thoughtful person, and carried himself in a way that would make any company proud. I would recommend that you that you make sure you retain an employee like that. There are many "entertainers" out there in the tour business, but not many sincere real people."
