Item Description

For the history lover visiting the Washington, DC area:

  • Four grounds passes to George Washington's Mount Vernon in Mount Vernon, VA. Grounds passes provide self-paced access to the historic area, outbuildings, gardens, tombs, farm, trails, and the Museum and Education Center during regular business hours. 
  • $100 gift card to the Old Ebbitt Grill in Washington, DC.

George Washington's Mount Vernon is the historic home of America's first president, George Washington, just a short drive from Washington, DC and Alexandria, VA. Once a vibrant plantation in the 18th century, George Washington's Mount Vernon estate is now one of the nation's most visited historic sites.

The Old Ebbitt Grill is Washington's oldest saloon, founded in 1856 as a boarding house that housed famous Americans including Presidents McKinley, Grant, Johnson, Cleveland, Theodore Roosevelt, and Harding. In 1983, the Grill moved to a Beaux-Arts building that was once the old B.F. Keith's Theater on 15th Street. The Grill has amassed a priceless collection of antiques and memorabilia including beer steins, animals heads (reported bagged by Theodore Roosevelt) and wooden bears (asid to have been imported by Alexander Hamilton for his private bar). Today the Victorian interior evokes Washington saloons at the turn of the century. Known for their oysters and raw bar, the Old Ebbitt Grill also offers brunch on weekends, and a full menu from burgers to soft shell crab, filet minon to roasted chicken.
