My wife and I had a great tour of DC with Joey and Edward. Joey was really knowledgable but also good fun. Everything was explained brilliantly and the pace of the trip was good. If you want a good overview of DC then this is the tour to go for. Started at 10 and finished at about 16:30. The boat trip in the middle over lunch was also excellent. - Mike S.
Outstanding excursion, I highly recommend. Time spent at each site was perfect. Breaking up the trip with the cruise was fun and enjoyable. Tour guide was entertaining and informative. - Amanda HS
Our guides were beyond wonderful. Sally was so informative and Chris was the perfect gentleman driving and escorting us. I highly recommend this experience. - Jeannie
We took the nighttime DC monument tour in a covered top Sprinter van. Our guide was friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the city. We were visiting in early January so it was super cold and had recently snowed so our guide kept us warm and comfortable also by strategically parking the van or moving it for us to save steps after walking the monuments. Overall, fun and memorable. I'd highly recommend this tour!
