David_L, Apr 2024
Vietnam and Korean memorial were neat to see at night. The tour guide was very knowledgeable as well
Great night-time tour!
Carla_S, Apr 2024
Our tour guide, Deon was amazing! He took us to all the major monuments with a personalized tour, lots of great information, and best of all, no lines. Touring at night really allows you to see details that you can’t see in the daylight.
Sad

I got out of an oncology nurse education class late and did not have time to make bus. Driver called and that was appreciated. But i missed a nice experience
A must see tour

It was a chilly but perfect evening to do the open air bus tour with Raphael. As a native of the area, he was very knowledgeable and spoke from the heart of each monument he took us to. We had plenty of time to explore each site. He was attentive and considerate of our needs. Our group was so happy that we booked this tour. We would have never been able to do all we did on our own.
Great Tour

Kia was super knowledgeable, fun, and respectful. Her enthusiasm for showing off her home town just sparkled. Our bus driver safely got us to so many sites and got a lost wallet back to us. Thank you all for a class act! Highly recommend!

Brittany was an amazing tour guide. Very knowledgeable, friendly and professional! Trina (our driver) was great! She was so friendly and involved at every stop. Which is one of the reasons our tour moved along so smoothly. It was very organized and the time expectation was set it every stop. I would definitely do this again and highly recommend to anyone!
Good for kids.
Home_C, Apr 2024
The multiple faces on Lincoln was interesting. Tour guide was entertaining. Slightly obsessed with the number 13, but in an entertaining way. Not much walking but enough that you get to see the monuments up close.
Good group good guide
Chris_R, Apr 2024
The entire trip was cool. Too rushed but cool. Maybe less memorials and more time at each. I don’t want to say any more
Fantastic Way to See DC!
