Enjoyable trip
My family found the tour enjoyable. Our driver/guide was polite, informative, and flexible. We were allowed to prioritize desired sites based on our available time.
Be prepared for exorbitant prices charged by city vendors.
Make sure your selected vehicle is spacious enough to accommodate your entire party.
If you need to extend your tour, agree to an total amount due prior to the tour to avoid any last minute transactions.

Smithsonian multi venue tour in DC
The team were amazing. Our first time in DC and we were stymied by road closures for July 4th. We were a little lost and late, but made a call to the team and they instantly relaxed us and when we arrived late we were greeted with cold water and cool freshener towels before a team member, Ryan walked us to catch up with tour group. Our tour guide Dash was knowledgeable and authentic with great energy. The kids and I learnt so much through the tour of the Smithsonian museums and loved every minute of the tour. During walk in heat, other team members arrived with cold water and icy poles.

The Guide is very...
The Guide is very knowledgable and had lots of interesting information to share, not only about the sites which we visited, but also about places we passed and important and interesting people of Washington. Very enjoyable and well planned tour.
Guide was happy to answer any questions.

Excellent way to spend a few hours!!
This tour was very informative and gave key highlights to the area without needing to spend hours and hours reading plaques in different buildings on our own. It was a comfortable pace for all individuals in the group. Our guide, Debra, was not only knowledgeable about the area and different buildings but attentive to the people she led. We especially appreciated the tickets to the Senate and the House galleries and felt this was the perfect ending to a great day.

Americana and knowledge
My sister and I had an exceptional tour of the Smithsonian National Museum of American History with Maribeth. She was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and interactive, and did a wonderful job tailoring the tour to our interests. The experience offered a fascinating glimpse into American history and was both informative and fun, especially with all the Americana items that reminded us of our youth. Overall, it was a great tour and one we would highly recommend.

Full moon full of photo ops.
Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable of the history, very considerate of passengers, helpful regarding taking photos and exceptional about pick up and return to hotel of passengers. He had a sense of humor and an insight that reflected a true appreciation for the history of the US monuments.

Great tour and guide, not so great fellow travelers.
The tour guide and driver were excellent. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and must be a saint. Since it’s then end of spring break, there were plenty of kids. A lot of them did Not Know how to behave. Their parents allowed them to be rude and disrespectful. To talk over the tour guide. Under such conditions, this tour guide still put on a great tour and was patient and respectful to all travelers.

Great historically accurate, knowledgeable tour guide and tour experience!
I showed up late and Kenny still made it one of the best tours I've ever taken. We covered an incredible amount of ground — the White House, St. Elizabeth's mental institution near the new Mystics arena, Frederick Douglass' 9-acre hilltop estate, Mary McLeod Bethune's home, the first African American theater in the US (Howard Theater) where legends like Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, and Ella Fitzgerald performed. We wrapped up at the Lincoln and MLK Memorials — all before the African American Museum opened at noon.
This tour is deeply immersive and covers history you won't find in the standard education system. If you're visiting DC, carve out a full day for this experience. It's not just Black history — it's American history, told fully and honestly. Highly recommend Kenny and this tour.

Great tour would 100% book again!
I had a great experience on this tour. Both the tour guide and tour bus driver were so lovely and patient. The tour was very informative and I really appreciated the little sprinkle of humor in between monument explanations etc. It was also very comprehensive of everything I wanted to see in DC, they covered everything worth seeing in my opinion. Don’t hesitate to book!!

Limo tour of DC
It was so fun being in the limo together.
We wanted to see the sites but at our own pace and not be part of a guided tour with a headset. This was perfect, there were 9 of us aged 14-58, we all loved it. We listened to our own music and talked about the facts at each stop. And had a lot of fun together . Our driver was great, very accommodating.

Stellar Experience
Had a wonderful time being shown around everything in DC by mark, even during the government shutdown we still got to learn so much about all the monuments. The only advice I have is to rent a standard bike and not an ebike my ebike was crazy fast and I flew far ahead of the crowd without needing to.

Fantastic visit!
Visiting Mount Vernon was such a fun and memorable experience! Even though the mansion was under construction and only certain rooms were open, it was still fascinating to tour and step back in time. The grounds were beautifully maintained, and the staff was wonderful—friendly, welcoming, and very knowledgeable. There was certainly a lot of information to take in, which made the visit all the more enriching. We also enjoyed the nice gift shop and the on-site restaurant, which added to the experience. Overall, a fantastic visit that I’d highly recommend!
