My husband and I are touring the WH this MONDAY!! Super excited 😊
Cocinando con Doña Chuyita it’s so amazing. Have FUN!!!!
DrGariS simp
@James Harball yup.
Is it super expensive for tour ? What % of house do they showyou etc ?
@@stephenpoole7828 the whole thing except for the private residence. Free tour.
Nice video. I've been on the tour a few times, but I have never seen a tour guide so thrilled about his work as the guide in the East Room. 😁
Glad it was helpful! Now that is exciting - wow!
I really enjoyed this! Thank you so much I always wanted to see inside like I was on the tour!
Glad you enjoyed it! I was such an amateur then. I wish it was better but THANK you for the compliment :)
I’ve visited the White House 8 times. Every time was more interesting than the last. Always wanted to visit when the Christmas decorations were up, but never had the chance. During the holidays, the mansion is open for tours in the evening between Christmas and New Years. I’m sure it must look magical at night.
It’s really such a great place to visit. I bet it looks amazing at night!
Imagine living in a house where all of the presidents have been...😱😱😱
IT IS A RACIST NAME. WHITE HOUSE . WHY DID TRUMP INVESTIGATE ONE BLACK MANS BIRTH CERTIFICATE ?????? and this one BLACK MAN WAS THE ONLY BLACK TO BE PRESIDENT.
@@audreydunham4600 I was just commenting, on how amazing it would be to live in a house where all of the past presidents have lived. There was nothing racist about my post, so why does everything always have to turn into racism? Everybody needs to grow up, and share love not hate, regardless of your race. We ALL bleed red. And this is coming from a fifteen year old. 🤗
@@keyliegoodwin4170 Interesting fact if you didn't already know, but George Washington never actually lived in the White House. It was being designed/built during his presidency and during most of John Adam's presidency. Adams only lived there during the last year of his term. Even then, it was unfinished but habitable.
@@audreydunham4600 It wasn’t always called the White House until 1902 It was the Executive Mansion
@@keyliegoodwin4170 15 years old and a lot more mature then a lot of idiots on here. 👍
I grew up in WDC and have been on that tour dozens of times when friends and family visit. The Christmas and Easter tours are awesome! Have you ever had a tour of the west wing? That's even more amazing! Definitely worth it!
Thanks for sharing!! No I haven’t. Would love to see that.
Just took mines this past November and it was AMAZING
Politics aside the white house is an absolutely beautiful home with some of the best interior design I've ever seen.
It’s a very special place indeed
I know that Jackie Kennedy hired a famous interior design firm from NYC when she redecorated the White House in the early 1960s. Little has changed over the past 60 years. As a side note, I live in Missouri. In the late 1960s one of Missouri's first ladies hired the same interior design firm from NYC to redecorate the Missouri Governor's Mansion. It's like a mini-White House today and open for public tours too.
@@russbear31 that’s so cool to know. Wow
I enjoyed your video. I have been to the White House a couple of times. I live near Washington, DC and drive around that area often. I continue to get caught up in the rich history of Washington, DC in general, and certainly the White House in particular. Thank you for sharing your video. -JM!
Thanks so much for the amazing comment. I’m so humbled by it and I was so amateur back then. My newer material is so much more professional. :)
Little-known fact: those carvings in the wall around the entrance to the Grand State stairway that you see at 18:40 and again around 19 minutes, are the seals of the original 13 states. There are five on each side and three overhead. President Truman had those carved during the 1950-1952 renovation. He mentions it at the very end of his televised tour in May 1952.
Wow that’s super cool and thank you for sharing!
@@DrGariS I always wondered what those were and then watching the CZcams video of the Truman tour from 1952 he gave it away at the very end there. Looking them up online I’ve identified several of them. You can see Rhode Island and Massachusetts there and then the center seal in the three overhead carvings is Connecticut because of its unique oval shape.
I’ve been to The White House tour 4 different times myself and I’m actually doing a full presentation on it in April.
It's just so great that ordinary people are allowed into the citadel of world power. I wish other nations too respected their citizens as much.
This wasn’t about Trump at all. I definitely am FAR from a Trump supporter
Yes right was thinking the same
They do, all Western democracies but especially the USA and UK are required to allow citizens access to governmental building they own such as the UK Parliament or the Capitol Building. I would love to visit the USA and one day tour the White House and Congress, Though I live in Sussex on the south coast of England about 45 miles from London's center, I have yet to tour Parliament, there is a nice small garden attached to the side of it overlooking the Thames
@@shawntipton7398 No. Downing St is not open and Buckingham Palace is open for 2/3 months per year
@@DrGariS EEEE that's a shame
In 1991 me acuerdo que yo estube en ese bello lugar y fue la Segunda esperiencia mas linda en mi vida 🙂💜👍 God bless you..
Really nice tour. Thank you.
It’s my pleasure! I’m glad you enjoyed it
People dont realise moist of the Whitehouse is only 70 years old - few parts are the original ... considering the fire of 1812 and the main renovation in the late 40s early 50s authorised by Harry Truman who spent less time in the Whitehouse during his presidency. Indeed Truman was an exceptional President.
So true
The neo-classical design you see in the Entrance Hall, Cross Hall, State Dining Room, and East Room date from Theodore Roosevelt's 1902 renovation. During the Truman renovation, all the historic interiors on the state floor (moldings, paneling, fireplace surrounds, etc.) were carefully dismantled, stored, and then reassembled in the rebuilt White House. The only thing that couldn't be saved were the plaster ceilings.
@@daniel_sc1024 that’s such great information - thank you so much.
I worked at the Truman library for two years. He had to do the renovation because a piano fell through the floor. He redid it with iron so it won’t ever fall down again
Very cool. I love how artifacts are preserved over the years of the presidencies
Keegan Maroney I’m glad you enjoyed! :-)
I am acutually learning a little bit about the White House, right now, through Designated Survivor. Chief of Staff, Political advisor. Although, a lot of the discussions had in the white house still make no sense to me.
Sounds great to me
This makes me want to go so bad. I’m love Presidential stuff etc. This so cool! Thanks for sharing this!
U are So welcomed
Except that there's nothing "presidential" about the thug that you seem to support. The man who destroyed the sanctity of these great halls just by his vile presence.
@@jshanker2005 What has he destroyed? The democrats mess that he cleaned up by Obama and Biden?? Trump has made america great! Greater than it’s ever been in a long long time. Trump bought back manufacturing! Remember Obama the Disaster said that there needed a magic wand to bring manufacturing back? Remember that? Well we didn’t need a “Magic Wand” PRESIDENT TRUMP BOUGHT IT BACK! Obama gave millions and millions of americans the worst healthcare ever. Not affordable to the american people etc. Obama divided this country while in office. Obama made these young people like you idiots. You all democrats think all cops are bad and you burn the american flag and so much more. Obama taught you how to HATE THIS COUNTRY. I could list so many horrible things Obama and Biden did for this country. The Sleepy guy you want for President isn’t fit to be President! The man can’t even remember where he’s at! He clearly has dementia and needs serious help. But the man you want as President wants to raise your taxes, destroy jobs, defund the police, ban fracking! Banning Fracking means no cars, planes, electricity etc! Biden also wants to keep america shutdown from this fake china virus. He doesn’t want people to spend time with their families for Thanksgiving, Christmas, Birthdays, Weddings and all that! More people die of depression from sitting in their house because they can’t go anywhere rather than the China Virus. Just wait you have no idea what’s to come! Trump will be your President for another four more years!
@@FearlessTommo America's standing on the global stage, race relations, relations with neighboring countries like Mexico, inter-institutional relations... the list goes on.
The man was a lying, egotistical maniac who was broke to boot. All he had to show was a trail of failed businesses.
@@jshanker2005 Trump didn’t do all that! That was Obama! He made Black people think that Whites or anyone are racist! If anything Trump has fixed that! If Trump was so racist then why did he help the black community so much? Why did he win the Black Vote this election? Trump also even won the latino vote this election aswell. But Obama was the one who put America standing on the edge!
Always wanted to go to the White House @ Christmas time. So in 1999 I was so fortunate
to be able to go with a friend of mine. Was absolutely beautiful. Cameras weren't allowed then. But I see in the video, looks like you can now take video/pictures with your cellphone.
I had to have permission and it had to be kind of discreet.
Planning a trip US Washington DC.soon.. was looking for this..Thanks for sharing!
Hope you enjoy it!
When I was 12 . I was on the White House tours and I threw up all over the floor . But don't blame me I told my mother and my father I was not feeling good I wanted to stay in the hotel . But the White House staff was extremely extremely extremely very nice after it happen
I am so glad that although you were not feeling well, you have a cherished memory and can say you were in this very special House.
Beautiful, I wish I didn’t live in Alaska,it has always been my dream since the Kennedys were there to visit the White House.
You’ll get there one day, I’m sure. It’s definitely worth visiting.
@@DrGariS probably not in my life time, I’m going to be 72.I try to watch all videos on the White House.thank you for responding.
You’re still young enough and you’re very welcomed. :) it’s always fun to poke around CZcams. I have other vids you may like if you want to subscribe! :)
Stay safe!
@@DrGariS thank you I will subscribe to your channel.
You’re a lovely lady. Thanks 🙏🏻
Was wondering how you got the chance to film inside the tour? Awesome Video
Secret service allowed me to
I made the tour in 1985. No cellphones back then. Cameras weren't allowed inside.
Thank you! This is so awesome! I love history! Did you get goose bumps at all? I think I would in certain places.
Of course - you’re literally walking through history and in the footsteps of some amazing and legendary people
@@DrGariS Some brilliant minds and ones that protected our laws!
@@sandyg202 and some who have broken them severely, including almost ending our democracy - yes!
@@DrGariS Absolutely true! We are much more fragile than we think! Pretty scary!!
@@sandyg202 sadly so! Let’s hope for no more repeats of the nonsense and stealing of democracy and gaslighting. Anyway, thanks for watching! 😊
THANK YOU FOR THE TOUR SINCE I CAN NO LONGER WALK I WILL NEVER HAVE TGE OPPORTUNITY WITHOUT A MIRACLE
You’re so welcomed. I wish my tour was a little better but I’m glad you enjoyed. I believe they will accommodate you if you can’t walk.
They provide wheelchairs if you're unable to walk
@@Fantastic_Strangeroooh I didn’t even know that - thanks for the comment
Thanks for the tour.
Any time!
when are we as Americans just going to take a breather and find all that is best with EVERY President? come on guys we all love our country
YES!
That isn’t even remotely possible with a corrupt hair sniffer like joey marbles.
Amen!!
Very Nice video 💐👍
You’re so nice - thank you
Ahhh... the before times... can't get in now unfortunately. My wife and I wanted to do a tour last year but was told that they "stopped all tours since the pandemic and for the foreseeable future." When we were there in 2022 the place looked like a military camp with temporary walls and structures reminiscent of the military camps I stayed in during my time in Iraq.
Wow, didn’t know the tour was that drastically different. Interesting and thanks for the comment.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.
CAPTAIN M JOSEPHINE FONZO USAF* VET TREASURY ret
do you have to apply somewhere to be able to tour the White House I’m from the uk and me and my family would love to visit !
Amy Appleton Hi Amy. Good question. A lot of people were asking me as I exited the White House. You need to email your local Congress person. They will set it up for you. I would suggest doing it several months ahead of time.
@@DrGariS how does someone from the UK contact their local US Congress person?
@@SimpsonLinux😂😂
I've toured the White House twice and it was awesome.
It’s a very special and historical space!
That's the rose garden one of the first lady's had it made and it became tradition every since.
The Jacqueline Kennedy Garden. Dedicated to her by Lady Bird Johnson. 😀
Thank you so much for that wonderful compliment - so happy you enjoyed!
The Rose Garden is on the other side, bordering the West Wing and Oval Office. When presidents hold outdoor news conferences/statements, it's in the Rose Garden.
As correctly stated by gavinrobb85, what's shown in the video is the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden, aka the East Garden.
How did you get to video? When we were there at the end fo 2019, there was no video allowed, only still pictures
The Secret Service was behind me and one of them said for me to go ahead and do it discreetly so I followed his directions.
I did the 'tourist tour'- in 1995 when I took a month's leave from the British Air Force and toured the US via Greyhound. Clinton was POTUS then. I have been fascinated with modern US history all my adult life and I now live in South Carolina and became a naturaized citizen in 2018. The tour was enjoyable, however, it's the West Wing that I would really love to see......but today, unless you are connected to some influence or have family who work there, it is almost imposible for an ordianary citizen to see that! 🇺🇸🇬🇧
nobody shown this inside view except u love you bro for showing our dream ❤
Hey that’s such a nice comment - I really appreciate it so much
It’s an absolute goal of mine to tour the White House some day, I’m not into politics at all but there’s just so much history there
It’s a really great goal
Did you get permission to record inside? When we went there a few weeks ago there was no video recording allowed the second we enter the White House.
Yes, I was lucky enough to be told by somebody in the service at the White House. It was very nice of them.
How can the President live in peace with people touring the White House everyday?
6:51 that is the East Garden.
9:25 the Vermeil Room does not display silver, but vermeil, which is the French term for gold-plated silver. Hence the shiny gold color of all the objects on display.
Wow amazing info!
That garden area behind the East Wing is called the Kennedy Garden
Thanks for the information. How wonderful
Indian Voice from behind ❤️🇮🇳
Hello from Kansas🇺🇸
Hi from Los Angeles
The garden outside the East Wing is The Jacqueline Kennedy Garden.
It’s gorgeous
Do you get to see any of the west wing on the tour?
Chad Smith Definitely not on video
@@DrGariS Oh, but you do get to see it at least? Sweet!
Thanks for the great vid btw. I think I'll get to see it next month. Very excited!
Chad Smith I did but obviously not on the video and it’s not connected with the public tours at all. You’ll have a great time when you see it, a lot of history and it’s really fun to be in such a historic building.
Saw the outside when I was a kid, but have never toured the inside. Amazing rooms and history. I dont know if wheelchair bound people are allowed to your, as that is my situation now.
Tour not your
I think it IS accessible!
I think just being THAT close to the White House would be amazing! Let alone going inside…
Thanks for the cool comment - appreciate you
Excelent, congratulation!!
Thanks for the nice comment
It’s a lovely mansion. But looks quite small compared to other head of state mansions. Only been outside it as couldn’t get in since I am from the uk. Would love to get inside one day. As a history buff I am well versed in its history and the Kennedy renovation.
You can get in even if you’re from the UK! Sounds like your travel agent just didn’t know that.
@@DrGariS I know I can. However I was too late at applying as you need to write to the British console in D.C to get your tickets.
@@gavinrobb85 there are other ways also. :)
@@DrGariS are there? Do tell? 😀
I think that is the idea. Modesty is a virtue in a Republic. To have something ridiculous like Buckingham Palace for our president would have been an abomination to us. They deserve this only because we respect the OFFICE, but never the person.
13:39 Who is that? I have looked at the pics of presidents and I can't tell. Help!
It looks you had a great time. I am surprised you were able to just linger around outside. Did you have a press pass or something?
Are you talking about Zachary Taylor? I was just in the last group and they were great with me. I had a private meeting with WH staff beforehand and they knew I was ok!
@@DrGariS Is that Taylor above the door? I can't match that painting, and the pics of Taylor either have him way older or younger, and I have awful facial recognition skills.
That is so cool they allowed you such liberty, and that you respected it too of course.
I am doing a science on lesson National Parks and my students picked the WH. I didn't even know it was a National Park until they did. Your video is part of my research, so I thank you for the care you put into making it.
Those early presidents had great taste in good looking plates.
I believe that’s William Henry Harrison. Zachary Taylor was not well-groomed. His hair was shaggy and unkempt.
With the exception of the Diplomatic Reception Room wallpaper, not much remains of Jacqueline Kennedy's restoration and decor.
I know - so sad really
Subsequent first families found Jackie's decor style and taste too French despite it being so elegant and exquisite. The round tables in the state dining room which she introduced which also gave it a more personal and informal feel have been replaced by the straight long rectangle table and Rene Verdon, the French Chef she hired had a nervous breakdown when LBJ wanted Ribs served at state dinners!@@DrGariS
@@mja72so interesting. Then who knew from 2016-2020 we would have the trashiest and disrespectful people in there (to the office of the presidency). What a world!
Wow this place is very beautiful
I think so. I posted a few other videos on it.
Wow, I toured the White House when I was a kid back in the 80's. I'm surprised they let people take pictures and video now. They wouldn't let us do that back in those days. Course, there wasn't smart phones back then.
Thanks for the nice comment
I was there in the 70s, don't remember if you could take pictures - I'm thinking not.
There are some interesting videos of the White House under renovations many years ago where you can actually see where they gutted it down to the dirt below the foundation.
Yes I’ve seen a bit of it. I liked one with Jackie O
FYI,
the security officers (CIA department) in white shirts inside the white house are currently as of 2023 paid sixty thousand dollars a year at the entry level and with experience (working years there) can make up to 80 thousand or more a year. The top security (CIA inspector) makes over 160 thousand a year. Security is always rotated to different posts as a security measure unless the president or the first lady specifically ask to have a certain security person at a specific post at a specific shift because at the end of the day, the president is the boss of anyone that works in the White House until their last day in office.
It’s a rewarding job. And on top of that I think they need to have a professional degree. Jeez, you would think they would pay them a good salary, but they don’t do it for the money I would imagine. It’s not THAT bad but they should pay more.
@@DrGariS Getting paid 80 to 100 grand a year within a few years of experience for just standing around and being more of a tour guide is a lot of money. Yes, we do honor their service. But, come on. They are not doing rocket science work. The CIA department that does have higher levels where they get paid up to 160 grand a year is more equivalent to higher pay and they do get a higher pay. But, the guards standing around the white house get paid well for what they do. The ones who should get paid more so they can survive and not end up homeless are the lower middle class and the poor. But, thanks to bought off politicians, the national minimum wage and state minimum salaries never keep up with soaring rents, food and other cost of living expenses.
That's the Jacuqueline Kennedy Garden in the East wing.
Gone now. It was redesigned under the Trumps term.
I can only imagine the process to do something like this to get tickets and such lol
You just need to ask your local congressperson
I’m surprised you are allowed to film!
I was very lucky!
I'm also hear steel pan play outside, Trinidad and Tobago instrument.
Love those islands
How did you managet to take a video? Isn't it not allowed?
I had permission
How much does it cost to take a tour?
Nothing - it’s the People’s house!
I want to see the closet too!
I edited that part out. :/.
Maybe a skeleton or two, otherwise nothing much to see in the closet.
This truly is a great building
Agree
How can you enter the White House? From the beginning.
Go through one of your members of Congress
Thanks
Is there a dress code for when you’re on a White House tour? Do you have to wear business casual attire?
Nope, there’s no actual dress code. Jeans and a tee-shirt is ok! :)
If you need to ask…
Must have been your first CZcams video.
Thanks for the sweet compliment. Not as good as your material I’m sure. Cheers from Greenland.
That Guard House near the front of the WH really looks tacky - but I guess that's the age we live in.
After Trump, yes for sure! :)
How can i register?
Email your congressman/woman and they will set it up. I’m not sure about now in COVID
beautiful. and really pristine white. ❤❤❤
How much does it cost to tour ?
$0
@@DrGariS OMG! All my taxes I pay and we still have to pay $0! Is there no relief?
Hahahahha
It is sad that the people who own this building can no longer even see it from the front.
I think the people of the USA owns this building!
@@maryellenshockexactly my point. Thank you.
I would so like to see the White House in person.
It’s really cool. :)
I'd love to go back. My parents took us there in 76, unfortunately I don't remember much. I do remember that I didn't see some of the rooms I would have liked to have seen.
My name is Hitesh Tyagi and I am from India. I want to visit the White House. Can you tell me how can I visit the White House?
I just wrote to my representative, the Honorable Frederica Wilson as she represents my district.
@@DrGariS So Can I Contact in My Embassy At Washington DC For White House Tour Request.
i know a guy that set off the radiation detectors there because he was getting cancer treatments. The guards grabbed him and took him to another room
That’s really interesting. I’m glad they have that there!
It was ok I didn't think it was all that great.an alot of it you can see or off limits.i tour i enjoyed more was the Pennsylvania state capital building...when was dedicated by Theodore Roosevelt...
I like amercian history such as the white house and I'm from the UK
Awesome. Thanks for watching :)
@@DrGariS No problem
where's the haunted lincoln bedroom? my no-good senator couldn't get me into the white house tour.
Oh no. Must be in the Cult (your senator). The Lincoln bedroom is in the residence upstairs.
I find more interesting places in this world to visit than visiting "The Swamp".
Yup, 45 really did a number on it. 👍
This is the house ,you get what you give.
Did they ever get the Trump stench out?
It got covered up by Biden shitting his pants or diaper. What ever it is he wears. He doesn't even remember. Poor man
One would think that the White House would be on the river front!
Oh…why’s that?
@DrGariS Well, bcuz it's a mansion that's pretty much on a king or queen's level, and a riverfront or riverrear would be very nice. It would also be nice if the president had a presidential yacht at the White House on that river that I'm imagining. Honestly, I feel like the White House is in a silly spot, minus the way they have it next to the mall. I think it would look better on the other side next to the river! Maybe where the Jefferson memorial is!
Hope we can have such clean buildings in India. Those which are there need some good maintenance
Hopefully it will be completely disinfected and sanitized in January!
Question I was wondering if I could be a present some day
a nice little house
Right? :). 😆
WOW!
Thanks for the comment
It would have been nice in 1992 to take pics or videos. None of that was allowed.
Reminds me of the old footage of the Kennedy funeral
Yes! Good comment
As Nigerians we don't even know how the presidential villa looks like talkless of going in 😔,tge government is separated from the people like two parallel lines.
Nothing to hide in this great country call American, why will they not continue to progress.
I hear you. Thanks so much for watching
That stretch of road at 0:01. Right off the bat soldiers carrying flags and a horse-drawn caisson with the riderless horse blasted in my head. JFK's funeral.
Politics aside, the White House is such an impressive and imposing building with so much history. But would I stay in it for one night? Nope, the sheer size of it and the ghosts would turn me into a screaming banshee and run.
Wow, I didn’t know that about JFK’s funeral. What a sad moment in American history
It’s wild to think that every president has to sleep in the same house. I’m sure there is people working in the White House imagine having to live there and getting no privacy. Every other 4-8 years it’s either democrat blue or republican red, that’s a lot of decorating. You can tell Melania Trump was miserable in the White House she wanted to go back to mar a lago
Trump spent a fortune renovating the White House it must have sucked the day they asked him to pack his belongings and Biden move in. Also if a president lives there why is there tours aloud?
Nie widzę kamer w pokojach to dziwne oprócz ochrony w każdym pokoju powinny być obrotowe kamery.
i thought they did not allow video in there
Usually that is the case but the secret service agent told me I can but to be discreet about it and I think he advised all the other agents!
@@DrGariS well, arent we special?
As a psychologist, I do truly believe everyone is special in their own way for sure! :)

Amazing white house
And no one ever found out how the bag got into the Casa Blanca 😂😂😂😂
My best guess would be Eric & Don Jr leftovers!

It’s the Jacqueline Kennedy garden.
Beautiful 🤩
