Good stories, take kids with caution

The guide did a great job telling stories about different events and took us by many prominent sites. He was in character and very entertaining. People with kids should use caution however as there were many inappropriate stories and a lot of curse words used. I almost left because of it. There were a few kids present and the language was not appropriate.

Great tour and guide

Decided to tour inside of Capitol in at breakfast one day in DC and official government website showed tickets were sold out. Went to Viator and multiple options were available for that day. Booked 11:30am tour and was very happy with how super informative and efficient it was. Tour guide Dwayne was fantastic.
