This was by far the favorite part of our trip. Our guide, Liam, was extremely knowledgeable and we loved having a smaller group so we could ask questions. The tour was 3 hours long before getting to the Capitol and the time flew by. I walked away learning so much and have shared this experience with many people we know who have upcoming travels to DC. I would HIGHLY recommend booking this tour!

Fantastic and moving tour
Joey and Evan were fantastic tour guides. Thanks, Evan, for putting us on the open-air bus, and Joey for explaining the monuments. For the bus, it would be nice to give her a microphone so we can hear better from the back.
