Had a great time exploring this play place. The employees were even dressed up as secret agents! They even had little fake guns they would point at me and say all sternly "Get out or we will shoot!". I loved the different rooms with fun themes, like the defense headquarters, and the bomb room. I even met an alien!

This was one of my favorite tours in DC. The place is enormous. Security is tight and a security clearance must be done in advance. In addition to displays from all branches of the military, our guide took us to the 911 display inside where we could see exactly where the terrorists plan came thru the building. there is also an outdoor memorial to those who lost their lives on 911.

We expected a little more in-depth info during our Pentagon tour, like maybe how the building is laid out, which floors dedicated to what, etc. Our first guide, female USAF, was easy to hear, but the second male Army guide spoke too fast & was difficult to hear. There are numerous display cases throughout hallways, but really no time to even look at them. I did like their focus on 9/11, exhibit, chapel, etc. Outdoor 9/11 memorial NOT included in tour—you must walk around parking lot on your own to see this—definitely a must-see. I appreciated being allowed inside Pentagon and understand secrecy, but feel we left with little more than seeing shops and hallways.
