Tour guide was friendly, helpful and full of information. Really convenient way to see the highlights w/o all the driving & parking hassles
Response from Host, Apr 2024
HI Bethany- Our survey tour hits the spot - 10 sites in 4 hours and the National Mall in all it's evening glory with monuments against the darkened sky. Thanks for joining us and for taking the time to leave this review while on travel!
Samantha_S, Apr 2024
If I could give 10 stars I would have. Wes was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Had some great info and was enthusiastic and funny. Went out of his way to drive me back to my hotel since the tour ended late and I was traveling solo. Very kind of him to do.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Hi- Well, we'll gladly accept your 10 Star rating! We like to look after our solo passengers - we are delighted to hear everything worked out for you- The National Mall is majestic at night. Thanks for joining us.
Hannah_F, Apr 2024
Dustin gave us a wonderful tour. Very informative, knowledgeable and friendly. Would definitely take this tour again.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Hi Hannah- We thank you for this awesome review and we are so happy you'd take our tour again because our Day Tour is a very different experience!
Come back and see us and we'll show you DC in the sunshine as the business of government commences. Thanks for choosing us.
Dan_V, Apr 2024
Derick was very knowledgeable, he has a great sense of humor and made everyone part of the fun. We came to DC for the first time and needed a good high level view of the sights.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
HI Dan- We so happy to hear you got all the shots you wanted and we agree that our overview tour is a great way to become acquainted with DC. Thanks for this great review and for choosing us.
John_E, Apr 2024
Anne Marie was a wonderful guide and extremely knowledgeable. With the tour starting at 7:00 it’s not dark yet. So she did the tour in reverse so that the best places were lit up when we arrived at them because it was dark at that point. Would highly recommend taking this small group tour.
Stephanie_S, Apr 2024
Steve was such a great tour guide! I felt like he really balanced allowing our group to have time on our own to explore at each of the monuments and not rushing us. I highly recommend an evening tour if you are traveling to DC. The monuments at night are just spectacular.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
HI- You'll make Steve's day- we truly thank you for your high recommendation and especially your comments on how balanced his tour was- we work on that every day! It's hard to know when to move to the next monument- they are all so beautiful at night!
jenni22514, Apr 2024
Wes was great! Even kept my 2 teens interested. He extended the tour and made sure we saw everything.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
We know what you mean by Wes having a special way of communicating with teens! We are so pleased they enjoyed his tour and thanks so much to you for choosing us for your family's DC adventure .
Annette_S, Apr 2024
We had the best time on this tour. Saw a lot of attractions with less walking and limited time frame . Highly recommend! Corey was great.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
HI Annette- We do pack in a whole lot of sites in our 3 hour night tour. We truly thank you for your high recommendation and we'll let Corey know, too. You'll make his day. Thanks for choosing us!
STACEY_W, Apr 2024
Highlight of of our trip to DC! Steve was a great tour guide, giving interesting background on all the stops and sites. Seeing the monuments lit at night was breathtaking, including the White House.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Hi Stacey- We love to hear Steve's tour was the highlight of your trip! And we agree, the National Mall at night - especially in the spring - definitely IS breathtaking! Many thanks for joining us!
Michael_T, Apr 2024
Dustin did great job filling us with interesting stories and facts. Knows the history and how to avoid crowds.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Hi Michael - The National Mall on a spring night is just stunning and with a guide like Dustin to interpret you have the best of all worlds. Many thanks for this great review and for selecting us for your tour.
