Dwayne is a nice guide, he is so energetic. He provides very detailed history of US Capitol. We learned a lot from him.

Such a great tour led by Dash. We were pleasantly surprised at the length of the tour! Really got our money's worth.

Capitol-Library of Congress-Supreme Ext.
We toured the Capitol, Library of Congress and exterior of the Supreme Court with Dwayne. The tour was 10/10! The amount of DC knowledge and art appreciation packed into 2 hours was incredible. My husband and I have done the Capitol tour with a staffer before - I learned so much more with Dwayne. Viator needs to give this guy a raise. If you’re looking for a personally guided tour thru Viator don’t hesitate - Book it!
