"This is an excellent, informative and interactive museum. Hard to believe it’s free admission! Makes you want to donate!" — Michelle B.

"What a great experience! This museum is one of the most advanced technologically I have ever seen. The level of interaction you can have is so unique and well done. From a replica of the Oval Office to a virtual situation room where you can weigh in on what should be done to an immersive State Dinner experience, this museum is special. My teens loved it and we had a great time and will be back." — Ingrid L.

All of the technology around the museum immerses you in different areas of the White House. Made a free reservation online and didn’t have to wait. Would recommend for all ages." — Anthony
