We'll begin our donut adventure here, at maman french bakery inside the Western Market. This is also very close to the White House, which we'll stop by on our route.
We'll walk by the White House and provide a brief history of it and our nation's history, along with some fun donut history to go with it.
Palmer Alley is a cute site off the beaten path. We think you'll love it.
We'll walk near and around the Chinatown neighborhood.
We'll end the tour at CityCenterDC. This is a very new complex in DC and we have a great surprise at the end of the tour here.

Jenna was amazing. She shareda lot of interesting information and was patient with the children.
This was the best tour I’ve ever been on! My wife and I loved every minute of it. The guide was incredibly enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Everyone else that booked the same tour bailed because of the rain but he braved it to take us and we had an amazing time! There was so much more history than I expected and I loved it. The variety of donuts was incredible and made the whole experience that much more fun!
Jenna has so much fun guiding this tour that you have to have a good time! She’s personable, knowledgeable, & also very mindful from a sanitation standpoint. At each stop she had hand sanitizer, wipes, napkins for those on the tour plus gloves for herself. Completely enjoyed the historical tidbits as well as the interesting backstories about the donut businesses we patronized. Pace was perfect & donuts were superb. Bring a beverage with you!
Jimmy is great. Great way to see the sights and get some local food.
Opportunity to try some “artisanal” doughnuts which aren’t words one would typically associate together. My favorite was the beignet. My husband’s favorite was a caramel with Dulce de lèche filling. There definitely would be something for everyone.
Loved Jenna’s tour info and her fun personality! Our group we were with was fun too-fun to be with other people and experiences.
Great experience. Very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Would recommend to others.

This was our 3rd city for the underground donut tour. They are all very different but none of them disappoint. The guides are always friendly and knowledgeable. It’s a fantastic way to learn the history of the city. Highly recommend.

Met Jimmy who had beignets waiting for us. Interesting off the beaten path historical tidbits about downtown DC. Four donut stops…soooo full…
This is such a fun tour to do in any city. We love it so much we have taken an Underground Donut Tour 17 times! Leap was an amazing guide, taking to have sweet treats and talking us through a city she clearly loves. Here’s to delicious donuts!

Jenna was fantastic and knowledgeable!
Jenna was our guide. She was great and very sweet and patient with the kiddos that were on the tour. We were able to try 14 different flavors if you include the sauces for the first one. All yum and many unique flavors.
I really thought it would be more walking and seeing things- the entire walk is less than a mile and the only real stop was the White House which can’t be seen with the fencing (not the tours fault obviously).
Jenna was great. She clearly has a passion for history, made it a fun tour and her meetup instructions were very clear. Value for your money is where I struggle - we had 1 small beignet at the 1st stop, 2 quarters of donuts at the 2nd stop, 2 mini eclairs at the 3rd stop, and split 6 donuts between 8 people at the last stop. It was cool to see a different part of the city than the typical monuments and museums, but unfortunately much of it was blocked off - you can’t get anywhere close to the White House rn (not their fault, obviously, but something to consider), and the tour only covered about a mile total. Also, to be called “Underground Donuts” I wouldn’t expect to visit all crowded, chain locations. I didn’t have a bad time, but I wouldn’t book again.
The tour was amazing, the guide was amazing, and the donuts were fantastic!!
Jenna is a wonderful guide. Lots of fascinating history along with the donuts.
Fun experience. Food was tasty and the guide, Jenna, was very personable and informed.
Very much fun! Tried doughnuts that I would not have tried otherwise.
