Enjoy a 2-Hour guided tour of Capitol Hill including entry to US Capitol and Library of Congress. Pass by the Supreme Court, Senate Offices, and Ulysses S Grant Memorial. Inside the U.S. Capitol: Join the official guided tour with headsets. Typical rooms include the Crypt, Rotunda, and National Statuary Hall; sometimes the Old Supreme Court or Old Senate Chambers. The Crypt was originally intended for Washington’s burial. Library of Congress (self-guided after Capitol): Guests use timed-entry passes to walk straight into the Jefferson Building, widely considered the most beautiful building in Washington. Highlights include: The Gutenberg Bible, the Great Hall, Main Reading Room, Putti and carvings, and Architectural firsts – the Jefferson Building was the first public building in Washington designed for electric lighting and one of the first to use a comprehensive climate-control system.
