Do I have to plan a tour ahead of time or wait in line to get tickets to get a tour inside the white house? -

Tours of the White House are free, however you must request tickets at least 30 days (and up to 6 months) before the day you want to visit. To request tickets, you must contact your US Congressperson. To get the contact information for your congressperson, visit http://www.house.gov/zip/ZIP2Rep.html and put in your zip code.

Ed is correct. It is no longer possible to just show up at the White House and get in line for a tour--that ended after the 9/11 attacks.

Ed is correct.I noticed you have never answered a question yet.You have asked 11 questions, including this one, and have never selected a best answer yet.!!!!How about doing your part!!!!
