“The White House is pleased to announce the resumption of a limited schedule of East Wing and Executive Residence tours, beginning on November 5th,” a statement from the White House Visitors Office said Friday. Tours will operate three days a week; before the budget crunch, tours were open five days a week.

“Additionally, the White House will be opening its gardens and grounds to visitors on October 26th and 27th,” the statement continued.

Budget cuts had canceled the tours for most of this year.
