Our colonial-clad characters are poised to guide you through history. While on your
feet or in a seat, Capital City Colonials can entertain you on your visit to Annapolis.
Whether you are traveling solo, in a pod of family or friends, or a gaggling group, we
have choices that promise to wag your tail.
PUBLIC TOURS exercise both the mind and the body. Walk the Annapolis
historic district with our Historic District 101 Tour.
Your guide will enchant and escort you through 18th century Annapolis taking you in a colonial
kitchen, the Waterfront Warehouse, St. Anne's church and the Maryland State House when available.
The Annapolis Food & History Tour features
frequent food tastings blended with history and humor. You will get to digest delicious food
as well as a bit of Annapolis' rich history. Enough food is served to cover you for lunch;
and enough walking is provided to cover the food. Balance your energy with a segway between
the past and present on our Segway Tour.
GROUP TOURS can be arranged for any of our public tour offerings.
Additionally, consider these specialty tour offerings. Women’s groups often enjoy our
Women of the 18th Century tour that focuses specifically
on the daily lives of women of all social classes. Church groups should consider a walk or
performance from our Vicar's Tour as he preaches about worship
in the Maryland colony. Military history buffs like to walk with the uniformed aide-de-camp
to General George Washington as he traces the path of
Washington's Resignation. Tour the
Grand Houses of Annapolis stopping for lunch with your colonial
guide mid-tour. Design a group tour to meet your specific needs from suggestions on our
Custom Tours page or consider one of the UN-TOURS described below.
UN-TOURS offer both passive and active choices. On a visit to the home of 18th
century printer Jonas Green, his descendent and current resident
will be your host and guide (he is also a USNA grad). The Sands House
had its last real estate transaction in 1771. Current resident, local author and
great-great-great-great-great granddaughter of the Sands will show you what relics her ancestors
left behind. Enjoy Colonial Gossip in air-conditioned comfort.
Sit, watch, and listen to social interactions of our colonial characters performances; then ask
questions if you like. Criss-Cross Annapolis is our team
building scavenger hunt that can be customized for each group in content, difficulty, and duration.
One or more of our colonials can attend (and work) your next party or function. Visit our
Rent-a-Colonial page. We have centuries of experience.
So, whether you're coming to Annapolis to see the U.S. Naval Academy (USNA) or to sail the
Chesapeake Bay, no visit is complete without enjoying one of our Historic Annapolis tours.
