Kick off the weekend with this Amazing Annual Event and Tour
Spend an evening in Old Town (Alexandria) Virginia. Step back in time to the 18th Century and hear the ghost stories of our founding fathers as we creep through the dark night of Old Town Alexandria. Our expert colonial guide tells us bizarre and ghoulish tales of one of the most haunted cities in the world (and it is right in your backyard).
You’ll be spooked by the tales while at the same time charmed by the city’s streets brimming with 18th-century haunted houses. Of course, we'll meet the colonial ghosts personally as we stop along some colonial graveyards.
After the tour, we will hit some of the hottest spots in Old Town for a NIGHTLIFE EXPERIENCE!
1) GUIDED HISTORICAL (and Ghost) TOUR:
Tonight, you’re invited back in time for a private walking tour of Old Town, Virginia complete with Victorian-style decorations and historic holiday tales. Enjoy a night on the “Old Town” as our colonial costumed guide shows us the dazzling array of colonial history on King Street, Market Square, and the grand ships along the Waterfront. We’ll also stroll by some quaint, garland-decked shops and, with any luck, run into some spirited residents along the way. Then, head to the cemeteries and hidden streets and alleyways, where "ghosts" are rumored to still haunt every night.
2) CHADWICK’S:
One of Old Town’s friendly neighborhood hangout along the waterfront. We’ll enjoy an after tour drink while taking in the splendid view of the Potomac. Here, meet with some of your fellow after dark enthusiasts before we continue to hit the night scene.
3) FISH MARKET RESTAURANT: This hot spot, originally used to store ships’ cargo over two centuries ago, is a historic and charming location. The bar comes alive as we enjoy live piano music (perhaps -though not officially scheduled yet – a dueling piano scenario)
4) MURPHY’S: This is an Alexandria institution. It’s an Irish bar best enjoyed in the company of others – in this case your fellow young professionals. Practice your singing, as you should not be surprised if entertainment and the entire bar breaks out into cherry Irish Tunes.
ALL BARS AND CLUBS REQUIRE THAT YOU HAVE A VALID PHOTO ID TO ENTER.
