Due to the popularity of Mount Vernon’s special “Basement Tours” in January and February, the Estate has created an entire “National Treasure Tour” where visitors can take an hour-long walking tour that includes behind-the-scenes information about areas where “National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets” filming took place and how these locations were used during George Washington’s time. The Mansion’s basement with its cornerstone is included in this tour, which is offered only in March at 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. There are no advance reservations for individual tickets. Groups of 20 or more may reserve a separate tour in advance through the group sales office, click here: http://www.mountvernon.org/visit/group/index.cfm/pid/73/ for more info.
The National Treasure Tour is limited to 25 visitors per time slot and costs $2 per tour in addition to Estate admission: $13 adults; $12 seniors; $6 children (6-11); free for children 5 & under. For groups of 20 or more, the cost is $5 per person in addition to Estate admission.
