Ralph was fantastic! He interacted with everyone in a personal way and made the tour great!
We would absolutely recommend this tour. Our tour guide Dre & driver Miss T were amazing. Dre was so knowledgeable, respectful & funny. It was the best part of our time in DC, seeing the city at night was stunning! Would definitely do it again.
All the staff were wonderful. Deon 13 was our tour guide and he was a wealth of knowledge. Amazing way to tour DC highlights in one day. I highly recommend this tour!
Thanks for making my dad bday that much more memorable! My dad a senior citizen and the pace was perfect for him, including all the bathroom breaks and patience. Thank you Terry for a tour to remember and for signing to my dad happy birthday!!! Memories to last a lifetime. His service dog loved it too!!!
We took the DC tour on Sunday. Nick was our guide. The tour was a great way to see the sights and learn interesting facts. Nick loves his job and it shows! He was funny and informative! Highly recommend Nick and the 6 hour DC day tour. We had and amazing time!!
We had a fantastic time on our night tour. Paul was a perfect blend of humor and providing us interesting facts and history! He could not have done a better job!!!
Tyler Marie was our wonderful guide on this small bus tour of NYC. She was upbeat and so knowledgeable and happily answered our questions. Would definitely recommend this 6 hour tour. Frequent stops at highlights broke up the time nicely. We had fewer than 30 people on our bus. Our tour never felt rushed! Great experience.
Gil was an amazing tour guide. We booked the 6 hour NYC tour and I can not imagine a better way to see all that we saw in half a day. We started in Times Square, we were educated on history and architecture throughout our day. We made stops in Central Park, Rockefeller Center, Madison Square, the 911 Memorial, Ferry to Staten Island w views of The Statue of Liberty, & so much more. Worth every penny!
Excellent half-day tour of NYC if you’re pressed for time and want to see as much as you can! Tour guide was knowledgeable, witty, and engaging!
Great tour! Tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and a New Yorker so that’s always a plus. I’d definitely recommend this tour!
