    Very well organized tour. Deon, our guide was soooo knowledgeable, energetic, and entertaining.
    Shawn, our driver kept us safe and tried to keep us out of the cold and windy conditions as much as possible. The monuments were beautiful, and we saw the White House Christmas tree, too. Definitely worth your time.

    The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about the city landmarks and he really looked after all of us. The tour was superb as the night was clear and bright and this made it enjoyable. Shame the White House wasn’t that visible! Highly recommended

    Amazing experience and definitely worth the money. Our driver was so fun and personable, and our tour guide was so nice and well informed. I've been on a few yours but this was definitely the best one because of the nice transportation and in-depth knowledge of the tour guide. Would absolutely recommend, especially for first-time DC folks!

    Dustin on DC moonlight mall tour was wonderful. Very informative, took us to all of the top spots, plus pointed out others not on this itinerary. Shuttle bus was clean, warm and spacious. Well worth the price.

    Very relaxed and informative as she was able to drive and stop all the way down the National Mall. It was pre election snd the skies were blue

    The tour was very informative and she allowed lots of stops for is to wonder off and take photographs.

    At the end of the Tour she dropped is in Georgetown for a great Lunch
    We then walked back to Union station to get our train via the river

    Highly recommended

    Our tour guide, Nick, was great! He was an expert guide and storyteller and very personable. We saw so much and learned so much about DC and our country's history! I only wish I had booked this tour for the beginning of our trip so we would have had a better idea of where everything was and what other places we might want to go during our unscheduled time in DC.

    My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our evening tour with Christopher. He picked us up at our hotel in a spacious SUV and gave us some options of things to see. We generally followed his recommendations to see several memorials, including the Lincoln (of course), the WW2, the MLK, the Korean War, and the USMC Iwo Jima statue. He provided just enough information without overloading us, knew the answers to all pour questions, parked conveniently close to the monuments, gave us nice introductions to each one, and then waited patiently while we walked through them at our leisure. He is a consummate professional, and we strongly recommend him.

    Wes was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and accommodating. He knew trivia that made what could have been a boring trip not boring at all.

    We had a wonderful DC night tour with Kenneth. We saw all the sights we wanted to see and even a surprise monument we didn’t even know existed - and we’ve lived in the DC area for many years. It was a great evening and I highly recommend this tour.

    Nur was an exceptional tour guide. He was very very knowledgeable in regard to the history of Washington D.C. We, our family of four, enjoyed the tour!

    This tour was well-run and the guides held fast to the timeline. James was amazingly informative. I genuinely marveled at how many names and dates he could pull from memory. Chris was similarly helpful and shared his own insights. My 10yo son and I had a very nice day.

    The hop on and off feature was fabulous! We did the entire circle we the first day to get the full trip in mind, and selected stops the 2nd day. Only bad thing was the boat tour. Complete waste of 2:45 hours. Boring and loud...AND we found out the night before that it was only a 1 way ticket with the package adding another $40 to our trip (would've been $75 if we had to purchase the trip back once in Gorgeto we n). Scam, IMO. In hindsight, we could've done another museum. We also found out on day 2 that we needed printed tickets from the station kiosk to be on the bus a boat. We used our app tickets on day 1 with no issue then were told "no" on day2. Overall, the bus tour was fabulous and well worth avoiding the hassle of driving and parking.
