Tour Requests
My office is pleased to offer assistance obtaining tours in Washington, DC.
I encourage Virginians to experience the opportunities that our Nation's Capital has to offer.
The White House
Due to heightened security measures, one may only obtain a tour of the White House through a Congressional office. As a result, tours of the White House are extremely limited. Therefore, my office cannot guarantee a tour of the White House.
In order to best serve you, please submit requests for a White House tour as far in advance as possible. My office recommends requesting a tour of the White House as much as six months to a year in advance. Please also note that White House tours are only available Tuesdays through Saturdays.
To schedule a tour, please contact my tour coordinator with the following information:
- Your name
- A contact phone number
- Available dates to tour
- Number of people
Please send the e-mail to

The United States Capitol Building
My office would be happy to work with you to schedule a tour of the U.S. Capitol. The Capitol Guide Service conducts free guided tours of the Capitol Monday through Saturday, 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM. The Capitol is unavailable for tours on Sundays.
The first public tour begins each day at 9:30 A.M. and the last at 3:30 PM. Tours last approximately thirty to forty minutes.
The Capitol is closed to the public on the following Federal holidays:
- New Year's Day

Occasionally, a special event such as a visit by a Head of State may temporarily suspend guided tours.
Please contact my office several weeks to two months in advance of your anticipated tour date to schedule a date and time.
